Fix your loft/bunk ladder in minutes. No more torture climbing into bed!
I got these to make my loft bed ladder less painful. They are fantastic. I may have opted for a narrower diameter to fit the ladder perfectly, but I used duct tape to go around each step after I cut the tubing to the right length and placed it over the bars. It’s pre cut so very easy to separate to wrap around and with 4 sticks, I only had to use 1 and still had a piece left over. I can use the others for other projects. Excellent value and my feet are so much happier to not have to step onto hard and narrow ladder steps. They should include one of these with any bunk or loft bed that features those round and narrow ladder bars. It took me 5 minutes to make my ladder useable.

Worked for our needs
Used this to insulated some outdoor wiring and it worked great. Just ziptied it shut and we have had no issues with it. Very happy with out purchase. We even had some left over for our next project.

Good as general craft supplies
We used these as 'arms' within the sleeves of a Halloween costume. They're lightweight and easily affixed with wire or school glue. Don't use hot melt; the foam breaks down when heated.

This is an Inexpensive, "Outside the Box" Solution that Works!
I have a lift chair for which I have purchased several stretch slipovers over the years. The challenge was always what to insert between the arms and the seat to keep the cover in place. I have used strips of corrugated cardboard, but that was a poor fix at best. Recently, I discovered this tubing and thought that it might be a better solution. The foam tubing is inexpensive, has a "grip" to it that holds the fabric in place, and can easily be cut to size with scissors. Viola! These tubes are perfect...I actually inserted two of them on either side of the seat, and I couldn't be happier with the result! Used with some strategically placed mattress "screw pins," my slipcover now looks custom and stays in place perfectly.

Good Value
Product just as expected. Each package contains four (4) 36" tubes, which will cover 12 linear feet of 3/4" copper pipe. Each tube is pre-slit for quick installation. The thickness (3/8") is typical of this type of foam tube. However, compared to the price of similar foam pipe insulators, these are a real bargain. (Note: These do NOT have the built-in adhesive tape like some of the higher-priced products on the market.)

Worked great for my purpose of padding rather than insulation
Truth in lending - I'm not using this as pipe insulation.For me, I wanted this to wrap around the shelf of a Racor PHL-1R Pro HeavyLift, to protect distribute weight on the straps I have woven through it, to hold my Jeep Wrangler Hard Top below it. And the foam also protects the hard top when I ratchet it up so that it is near flush with the Racor.I cut the pieces to the size I needed for the Racor, and used the spare pieces to wrap around the jeep roof at the contact points where the ratchet strap hooks grabbed on. Worked great for my purpose of padding rather than insulation. Have no doubt it would work to insulate as well.Price was good, and can also be easily replaced when I need to.

I had these installed over a pipe near my shower to protect my leg when i am exiting the shower from constantly hitting the pipe it worked out great to prevent it from happening going forward at a good price with material left over to give it to someone else who may have use for it for one of their home project.

Many great uses
I initially bought this to serve as a bumper to protect a section of my desk that my chair kept bumping into, worked like a charm. Later I bought a laundry cart with a hanger rod. I didn't want the hanger rod getting all scratched up from hangers sliding around on it, so I used some of this insulation foam on the rod, and just like that, I have hangers that stay put on the rod now. Fortunately 4 tubes come in the package. I have 2 left which I'm sure I'll find more uses for.
