I ended up with a 36" wide partial roll of this stuff years ago and finally used it all up. I need some more for use inside the house where outgassing is an issue (don't want PVC runners). The plastic is really tough and does not smell.

I once heard rumors it was from Costco but I have never been able to find it online or at my local Costco. Does anyone have any idea where I can find this stuff or what it is called?

Thanks

The stuff I see on Harbor Freight's website in non-slip and easy to cut. It looks to be foam based. Is this the liner you are thinking of?

The stuff I had was pretty hard plastic. Barely Ok for non-slip purposes (not an issue for most of my uses) and not easy to cut (tin snips or sharp exacto knife and metal straight edge). But it is super tough.

Thanks

I thought I bought a roll of the honeycomed stuff at there store a while back. If it doesnt have to be honeycombed and you want super tuff get yoga mats cut them to fit that is what I use and have yet to wear it out. And my tools do not move around in the drawers at all.

That's looks more of a wire look pvc based hard plastic diamond mesh liner than the soft foam waffle pattern liner/yoga mat stuff from HF or home stores.

Looks similar but the Op's stuff has a more open weave and is likely a more stiff or more stickey plastic I;m guessing.

Yep now i see that you are probably right. That is why I said go with real yoga mats there tuff and your tools dont move in the drawers Ive used it the last 2 or 3 years super tuff.

I have always used that grey thin carpet that you can buy at Home Depot. It works well, is cheap although you have to measure and cut it yourself.

I understand your outgassing issue, opened a drawer at HD on their SS Husky chest/cabinet. I thought it would kill me and i'm on oxygen to boot.

Yep.

I agree.

PET/Poly-eth mesh of some sorts.

2-liter pop bottle recycling FTW. :thumbup:

I think you are right. It is probably poly-eth mesh. McMaster Carr looks to have it, though it would be nice to find a cheaper source.

Thanks!
