Featured Products

3M™ Flexile Acoustic Material FAB Series
3M™ Flexile Acoustic Material FAB Series leverages acoustic particles and a fibrous structure to address current and emerging NVH challenges in a single, non-molded layer. The thin material features both absorber and barrier properties and has excellent mid frequency (500-2000 Hz) absorption without sacrificing performance in high frequencies. Our range of products can be used in various applications to address tire and road noise or other noises that would typically be treated by a combination of absorbers and barriers.

3M FAB0310, 3M FAB0510, 3M FAB0610 and 3M FAB0910 are excellent for use in applications with limited space (12mm or less) that require improved absorption across a broad frequency range (>500Hz). While 3M FAB1210 is excellent for treating low frequencies beginning at 300 Hz.

Key benefits of 3M FAB Series:

Thin product with high acoustic performance

Absorber and barrier performance in a non-molded single layer

High absorption in mid and high frequencies

Lightweight system solution
3M™ Flexile Acoustic Material FAB/SF Series
3M™ Flexile Acoustic Material FAB/SF Series is a decoupled product made from 3M™ Flexile Acoustic Material FAB Series and 3M™ Thinsulate™ Acoustic Insulation SF Series. By leveraging the innovative 3M Flexile Acoustic Material (FAM) technology and microfiber technology, we can offer NVH performance across a broad frequency range beginning at 200 Hz. It also offers good acoustic leakage management and can be used in interior and exterior applications to reduce cabin noise and help you reach your NVH goals.

3M FAB0310/SF200L is thin, light weight, high performing and allows more design flexibility. When challenged with low frequency noise control, look to 3M FAB0910/SF400L. Filling out the portfolio, 3M FAB0910/SF200L and 3M FAB0910/SF300L provide high performance across a broad range of frequencies and good noise management when cutouts and pass throughs are present.

Key benefits of 3M FAB/SF Series:

High performance across a broad range of frequencies

Increased design flexibility from ability to perform where pass through holes exist

Reduced need for repeated physical testing and fitting

Reduced development lead time from elimination of molds
