I see on e bay expanding silencer packing, any one used it? , any recommendations on suppliers?
Or may be a better material? thanks

I've used regular house-grade fibreglass wool, only because we had some leftover from insulating the garage! Worked fine, still fitted

I used to use them alloy wire type dishcloth things for pans or trays. Very vheap and work well, they do burn out eventually

I cut open a silencer box on a big bore mini exhaust years ago to remove the packing, and it was packed with old socks!! that a previous owner had packed in cos it was too noisy!
