DESCRIPTION
The **McFarlane CS085X18X36G Cowl Saver** is a **baffle‑seal material sheet** designed for use in aircraft engine cowlings. At **0.085 inches thickness**, sized **18" × 36"**, this sheet can be cut to fabricate straight, curved, or irregular‑shaped baffle seals that would be difficult to make from narrow seal strips.
The material uses **“Bi‑Flex™” technology** — one side consists of silicone and the other of a **low‑friction, Teflon‑coated rubber surface**. This significantly reduces friction between the baffle seal and cowl, which in turn reduces transmission of engine vibration to the cowl and firewall, helping to minimise cowl‑skin fatigue, fastener wear, and cracking.
---
## Applications
- Creation or replacement of baffle seals for engine cowlings on general aviation aircraft
- Particularly useful for cowls requiring large or irregular‑shaped seals that can’t be fabricated from standard 3‑inch strips
- Helps reduce vibration transfer, cowl wear, and structural fatigue in firewall‑forward installations

FEATURES
- **Bi‑Flex™ baffle seal material** — one side silicone, one side low‑friction Teflon‑coated rubber, to reduce friction between seal and cowl
- **Fiberglass-reinforced sheet** — balanced flexibility and stiffness to allow shaping and maintain seal integrity under engine vibration and airflow loads
- **Large 18" × 36" panel** — allows fabrication of full‑width or custom‑shaped seals for large cowls, improving fit and sealing
- **Helps prevent cowl skin fatigue, fastener fretting, chaffing, chaffing, and firewall vibration** — by reducing seal friction and vibration transfer
- **Simplifies baffle‑seal fabrication and maintenance** — particularly when original seal strips are no longer available or prove inadequate
