- Delivers comparable or better performance to conventional constrained layer damping (CLD) materials and is less than half the weight
- Stand-off layer features low-density engineered stem web that optimizes damping performance
- Damps structure-borne noise when lighter materials such as thin-gauge steel, aluminum and composites are used, without adding significant weight
- Flexible, conformable material applies uniformly to complex shapes
- Adhesive backing improves wet out and won't delaminate even at high temperatures
- Can be installed in vertical or inverted applications
- Meets requirements of many OEMs for low interior VOCs
- Thickness of 2.9 mm allows for a wide range of installations where space is limited

We also sell 3M SM600L which is the thickest grade engineered for vehicles
Insulate RV vent cover attached with magnets. Ripstop nylon facing with insulated core. Sewn in magnets keep cover firmly attached to interior bezel of the vent. Magnets and superglue included.
This fits the 14 x 14" Maxxair Fans.
MAGNET WARNING
Neodymium magnets are strong and can pinch skin. They may interfere with medical devices.
DO NOT LET CHILDREN PLAY WITH MAGNETS.
The magnets are brittle and can break or chip easily. Sliding magnets off the stack works best.
Broken magnets can still be used but we also include 2 extra magnets.
Keep magnets away from ferrous metals or they will jump to it.
Installation instructions:
1. Remove vent bezel by removing 4 screws holding it to ceiling.
2. Place vent cover on flat work surface making sure side labeled UP is visible and sewn on tab will be facing forward when back in vehicle.
This is very Important due to magnet polarity.
3. Place and align vent bezel on top of cover.
4. Distribute 12 magnets on back of bezel flange. The 4 round magnets are placed in the middle 2 spots on each side. They will snap to the locations of the magnets in the cover. See listing photo for location of magnets.
5. Make sure the cover stays aligned with the bezel.
6. Pick up each magnet and place a drop of glue on the bezel.
Then let magnet find it's place again. Do this for each of the 12 magnets.
7. Let glue set completely. Takes a few minutes.
8. Re-attach bezel to ceiling with screws removed in step 1.
9. Cover will now snap onto it and be held by magnets.
10. Front panel with tab can be folded over to allow partial 1/3 opening.

Check out the NEW Airplus vent fan we offer. It has more features than the Maxxair, a brushless motor and it does not rattle! By far the best!! The fan adapters also work with the Maxxair Deluxe series and the Fan-tastic Vent fans.
The framing strips are expanded PVC and bonded to the roof with a thick bead of Windoweld. They are more flexible than wood and plenty strong to support the vent and keep it from jiggling. We double them up when installing roof top air conditioners. They are essential if the span between the OEM roof beams is more than 18". They also provide a backing for the screws that hold up the vent interior bezel. They should be placed 1/4" away from the edge of the hole so the screws for the vent go into the strips. They are a generic size and will need to be cut to length. These strips are not contoured to the van corrugations.
****The vent adapter outside dimension is 16 3/4 X 16 3/4. If you are using a Maxxfan vent our adapter fits the Maxxfan Deluxe series, other Maxxfan vents have a wider flange. You will need a wider adapter. Please call.
Roof Vent Adapter Install Tips
We recommend Sikaflex 221. Locate and cut the 14 x 14 hole. You can use the adapter as a guide to mark the hole. Stay clear of roof support beams.
Make a tape line 1/4" beyond the adapter perimeter.
De-gloss the area with a Scotch-brite pad. No need to scuff, just dull the paint. Clean with isopropyl alcohol and let dry thoroughly. Blow dryer if it's wet and/or cold out.
Apply three 1/8" beads of the Sikaflex on the face of the adapter. Then, press the adapter down onto the roof until the adhesive oozes out the sides. It's not necessary to clamp. If you do, use several lightly set clamps and spread out the clamp force over the whole surface area.
Using the adhesive that oozes out, make a fillet around the adapter with a double gloved finger. Pull the tape within 15 minutes. Cure is fast on outside. Let cure overnight and then proceed with the fan install.
If you purchased our Interior Framing Strips, using the hole that you cut locate where the transverse strips need to be placed on the longitudinal strips. Assemble the interior frame with the 2" screws provided. Once the frame is assembled it will be glued to the interior side of the roof using Sikaflex 221. If the strips ordered are not bay specific, then you may need to cut them to the length of the panel you are installing it in.
We recommend using butyl tape for the fan install. Cover the fan flange with 1" wide tape. Place the flange onto the adapter and press down. Then drill pilot holes through the adapter and into the van roof. You may need the 4 longer screws provided for the corners. Tighten all screws very lightly against the fan flange. Some butyl will ooze out which you can trim off.
Coat the fan flange, adapter and onto the roof about 1/2" with self-leveling Dicor or brush-on Flexseal. Some sealants will melt the fan plastic so you might try it on a portion of the interior bezel first. You will cut a lot of that piece off.
Good idea to check the integrity and reapply the sealant every so often.
**Please note, if you purchased butyl tape with this order and the butyl tape is stuck to the plastic, place it in the freezer for 15 or 20 min. It will release, then let it return to room temperature.
The option with butyl tape includes 64" of butyl tape.

These vents do not include a plenum to bridge the gap (space) between inside of roof and top of ceiling panel. AC foam seal can be used to do this.
Weight is 4lbs 7oz.

The material comes compressed; we recommend unpacking it as soon as it is received. One roll is 20 linear feet. 20ft long by 60 inches wide.
Arctic Fiber is a high-loft 100% non-woven, thermally bonded polyester insulation. The material is 2" thick after it lofts up. One roll of material is 20 feet long x 60" wide. This insulation is widely used in Alaska in the Van industry and has other uses in pads, covers on exterior pipe, flange valves and other special equipment.
- Allows Trapped moisture to pass through it without being held in place and drys out quickly.
- Polyester batt insulation will not promote mold growth.
- Lightweight and easily fabricated to desired dimensions with a utility knife or scissors.
- Is not an irritant and will not cause skin irritation.
- Passes the FMVSS302 burn rate test.
Recommend using a high temp adhesive spray to apply to the van skin.
