Materials
This is heavy, 060-070" bitumen saturated felt paper. Not .030" thick 30lb Home Depot tar/roofing paper. This is custom made for us in the heaviest gauge the manufacturer can produce. Our pad are very similar to the original .070" saturated paper thickness, though more heavily saturated (a good thing for it's purpose) and doesn't have the waffling but I am working on equipment to do that.

FYI The original material was BROWN ASBESTOS FELT made by Armstrong Industrial Insulation (now Armstrong flooring). It was commonly used as a insulating and building paper used from the 40's through the 70's. Unfortunately for guys looking for original style ASBESTOS, it's not available.
OCCASIONALLY someone is looking to split atoms, thinking thier car was to gold standard that all parts should be duplicated to match thiers. In REALITY WORLD these cars were crude, the technology was primative, there were multiple suppliers so many of these items varied in shape, size, fit, thickness, etc. I'm a car guy and try to reproduce parts with the best fit, function and materials within reason (like these tank pads can't be made from asbestos like the originals). Basically I make everything the way I would expect to receive and use on my own car. If you have VERY HIGH expectaions, look elsewhere.
Note: Have these in 3 different materials.;
.070" felt paper very similar to OE material
.090" masticated rubber heavy weight for maximum sound deadening,
.250" neoprene foam rubber light weight, inexpensive.
