General Plastics LAST-A-FOAM® R-3318 Submersible Foam Series
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Composite Core Material

Material Notes: Product Description: LAST-A-FOAM® R-3300 is an easy-to-machine, pressure-resistant foam that provides buoyancy for underwater depths tested to 2,400 feet, when coated. The closed-cell structure of this series is uniquely engineered to withstand penetration by water and resist hydrostatic pressure. LAST-A-FOAM® R-3300 submersible foam is optimal for shallow to mid-water subsea buoyancy systems, marine and underwater robotics applications.

Features & Benefits:

  • Provides buoyancy with depths to 1,200 feet uncoated and 2,400 feet coated
  • Excellent mechanical and insulation properties
  • Easy to machine, coat, and paint
  • Dimensionally stable
  • Resistant to hydrostatic pressure
  • High impact resistance
  • Biologically inert
  • Oil, grease, and solvent resistant
  • Cost-effective solution
  • Does not rot or decay
  • Performs in freshwater and saltwater
  • Compatible with many types of adhesives
Applications:
  • Underwater buoyancy
  • Underwater robotics (ROV/AUV)
  • Semi-submersible craft
  • Pipeline flotation
  • Subsea mooring buoyancy
  • Buoyancy for assembly components in weightlessness simulation pools
  • Underwater pumps for offshore drilling rigs
  • Core material for resin-transfer molding
