BODY CONSTRUCTION - Silencer Application Locations A- SILENCER APPLICATION LOCATIONS Silencers (MD- and melting sheets) are attached to the top of the floor to reduce vibration and insulate against the heat from exhaust gas. NOTE MD- is a high performance sheet composed of asphalt applied with mica and thermosetting resin for improving anti-vibration performance. <RS-II> <RS> :. mm thick melting sheet :. mm thick melting sheet (Place two. mm melting sheets one on top of another.) :.0 mm thick MD- (Place three. mm melting sheets one on top of another.) NOTE The number in the parentheses indicates the number of melting sheet used for repair.
A- BODY CONSTRUCTION - Locations Using Urethane Foam and Foam Material LOCATIONS USING URETHANE FOAM AND FOAM MATERIAL. Urethane foam is inserted into the center pillar to prevent the penetration of noise.. By filling the top of the front pillar, bottom of the front pillar, center pillar, side roof rail, rear pillar and inside the wheel house arch with foam acoustic material, penetration of noise is prevented. Precautions on performing work involving sheet metal at locations using foam material As foam may burn when heated, observe the following precautions.. Do not perform heating work using gas burners at locations using foam material.. When cutting locations using foam material, use tools (air saw, etc.) which do not generate heat.. If leftover foam material is present at the area to be cut (body side), remove the foam around the area to be welded before proceeding with welding.
