upholstery foam 1x24x72
A sheet of upholstery foam 1x24x72 is one of the most versatile supplies in any sewing room. At one inch thick, 24 inches wide, and 72 inches long, it's thin enough to wrap, layer, or trim, yet long enough to cover a full bench seat or padded headboard in a single piece.
Where a 1 Inch Foam Sheet Shines
This slim foam padding works best when you want comfort without bulk:
- Dining chair seats and stool tops
- Window seat and bench cushions
- Padded headboards and wall panels
- Topper layers over thicker cushion foam
What to Look For
Density and Firmness
High density foam generally holds its shape longer under daily use, while firmness determines how the seat actually feels when you sit down. Check each product's details to match the foam to how often the piece will be used.
Easy Cutting and Finishing
Thin foam cuts cleanly with an electric carving knife or sharp shears, so you can size it to almost any frame. Add a layer of batting on top for smooth, rounded edges under your upholstery fabric.
