Adhesive EVA Foam 2mm Black
Adhesive EVA foam 2 mm is an essential material for cosplayers looking to add precise and decorative details to their creations. It is a flexible, lightweight, and durable material that can be easily molded and manipulated, and now it is also self-adhesive. Thanks to its thin thickness and self-adhesive side, this version of black EVA foam is perfect for creating filigree, reliefs, ornamental edges, and other finishes on larger surfaces such as armor, shields, shoulder pads, or weapons. This material is compatible with thermoforming techniques and other thermoplastics such as ThermoArt or Worbla®.
Adhesive EVA foam (ethylene vinyl acetate foam) is a lightweight, flexible, and durable polymer widely used in cosplay for its ease of handling. It can be cut precisely, heated to adapt to curved shapes, sanded, and painted to achieve professional finishes. In its adhesive version, it sticks directly to most surfaces, simplifying assembly without the need for additional adhesives.
There are three types of this material, each varying in density and application, as follows:
- Soft density (hardness below 25º Shore) is the least expensive and of lower quality, often too flimsy for crafts for children's projects. It doesn’t hold its shape well, has porous finishes, and lacks the durability needed for wearable costumes. As a result, this type is not recommended for serious cosplayers looking for lasting creations.
- Medium density (hardness 30º-40º Shore) is the most commonly used type in cosplay. It strikes a balance between flexibility and firmness, making it ideal for constructing armor, accessories, and props that require some degree of structural integrity while remaining comfortable to wear. This type can be heat-formed, sanded, and detailed easily, making it versatile for various projects.
- Hard density (hardness over 50º Shore-A) is more rigid and durable, used for larger or more complex pieces that need to maintain their shape over time. It’s ideal for helmets, shields, or pieces of armor that need to withstand more wear and tear. While it is heavier and more challenging to work with than medium density, the hard-density version provides a sturdy, polished finish for professional-grade projects.
