PSY, vinyl laminate with a polyester scrim reinforcement with high mildew and rot resistance. (Fire Retardant to pass California State Fire Marshall’s Test and NFPA-701). Vinyl covering shall be folded and stapled securely to 7/16” backing board.

A 1” nailing margin shall be provided top and bottom for securing panels to the wall with appropriate anchors supplied by installer. For a standard 2’-0 wide pad, three anchors on each nailing margin should be used. Trim washers can be used at each fastener location to improve appearance. Likewise, an aluminum strip can be used to cover the entire nailing margin, but is not necessary. Should Z-clips be used, foam height remains the same as a pad with two nailing lips; however, one nailing lip or both nailing lips can be eliminated. SofStop padding is available in any height from 1’-0 to 10’-0.
