| Product Description: LAST-A-FOAM® high-density, rigid foam products are cost-effective, versatile, strong and durable. They are manufactured using our unique chemical formulas to be exceptionally uniform and consistent in all physical properties. The FR-4500 is a grain-free, machineable tooling board for styling and design models, master models, masters for composite and layup tools, and for mold and foundry patterns. The material also serves as an excellent wood alternative for outdoor signage and display manufacturing. Available in densities from 10 to 50 lbs. per cubic foot. Key Performance Benefits: - Special formulation creates shavings when material is machined, causing less dust
