Quoted from DodgeViper: "What you want is a neoprene sponge. You want the rubber too absorb the vibration. The hose material in the photo is not forgiving. The material found on the bottom of mouse pads is close to neoprene sponge although it’s still a little to dense and not very thick. The stuff I am using is ½” thick and absorbs all vibrations."
Dv-
This stuff does compress when you put pressure on it eg, when I bolted the pump to the floor of my case. It has quite an "airy" consistancy. It is a quite different substance than is commonly used on the A/C lines in you home to insulate the line which is thinner and less airy. Also Mouse Pad is much denser and compress very little compared to this stuff I am using.
But, too many sections of this insulation would needed to be positioned side by side to insulate an entire case IMO, but it could be done.
