ZEPRON / Depron Page


Howdy!

Unfortunately: A) it's taken us a little longer to get everything squared away than I had hoped, and

B) the Post Office has hugely raised their prices for shipping large but lightweight packages across the country (which largely negates the price advantage of the Zepron foam).

I might be able to find some sort of workable solution, once I have time to investigate, but will only spend time on this after a bunch of other things are settled satisfactorily.

Until then, the shopping cart will not accept Zepron / Depron orders, but if you really, really need some please let us know either via email or by phone.

Thank you.

ZEPRON and Depron are lightweight foam sheets used to build airplanes, boats, hovercraft, WIGs, model buildings and darn near anything else you can dream up.

Zepron is similar to Depron and most existing Depron designs can be easily duplicated. It has a nice skin on it to prevent scuffing and casual dings and is readily shaped into simple shapes (wings, etc) with a hair drier or heat gun. However, as can be seen in the pictures is also has a slight curvature along the long axis. This can be flatted out with a heat gun as required, but if you need totally flat large pieces for 3-D contest-grade aircraft or whatever, then Depron will be the better choice.

If you're not familiar with foam sheet construction and are wondering "What's so cool about building with foam?" please see the Foam FAQs Page as well as other links and tips at the bottom of this page.
