Where do I find "high density" roll bar foam?
I want to pad my roll bars with something more significant that water heater insulation.
![]() Where can I find the proper roll bar foam online? Thanks in advance.

Three sources:
Stable Energies OG Racing (They have the high-density stuff with and without the SFI sticker. Without is cheaper.) Longacre

Summit in Sparks, Nevada has excellent pricing and sells SFI rated padding in various colors and thicknesses. I always start there for more generic racing stuff as they have the lowest possible prices, and the stuff ships to me in CA from Sparks, so fast delivery, cheap shipping and no sales tax.

Got curious and just checked Summit... I bought several sticks of their brand last year at about $13 or so each. SFI rated...
Looks like the pricing has skyrocketed since! No clue why that'd be.

John,
No it's not, glad you pointed it out, I wasn't comparing apples to apples. It's not a requirement with some groups (around here anyway). I do have the SFI rated padding but it's $5 and change more... It did go up a lot to Mike's comment, dunno why.. Paying for the rating?
