¾” Polyfoam edge roll

3/4" Polyfoam Upholstery Edge Roll, Closed-Cell Foam Profile

3/4" Polyfoam Upholstery Edge Roll is a firm, resilient furniture edging profile designed to produce smooth, rounded edges on upholstered sofas, chairs and other suitable furniture components.

Manufactured from closed-cell polyfoam, this upholstery edge roll maintains a defined shape beneath fabric or vinyl, helping professional upholsterers achieve a consistent finish around furniture arms, facings and borders.

The profile incorporates a 3/4" (19mm) rounded section and a 3/4" (19mm) fixing flange, allowing it to be positioned along suitable furniture-frame edges before the final padding and upholstery covering are fitted.

Available by the metre or in a 200-metre coil, this closed-cell foam edge roll is suitable for individual furniture restoration projects and regular manufacturing applications.

Specifications

• Material: Firm closed-cell polyfoam.
• Rounded profile: 3/4" diameter (approximately 19mm).
• Flange width: 3/4" (approximately 19mm).
• Supply options: Per metre or 200-metre coil.
• Primary applications: Sofa arms, chair facings and furniture-frame edges.
• Construction: Resilient foam profile with integral fixing flange.
• Finish: Creates a smooth, firm and consistent rounded edge.

The closed-cell construction offers greater shape retention than softer cushioning foam, making it particularly useful where a well-defined upholstery edge is required.

Unlike a hard plastic edging strip, polyfoam provides a degree of resilience while retaining its intended profile beneath the finished upholstery.

The result is a neatly shaped furniture border that can be blended into adjoining foam and padding materials.

Applications for Polyfoam Furniture Edge Roll

Polyfoam edge roll is commonly used in traditional and modern furniture upholstery where a consistent rounded profile is required.

Typical applications include:

• Sofa arm facings: Creating a smooth, rounded finish around the front edges of upholstered arms.
• Chair arms: Providing a defined profile beneath the finished upholstery.
• Furniture borders: Forming consistent rounded edges along suitable frame sections.
• Upholstered panels: Softening and shaping the edges of padded furniture components.
• Furniture restoration: Replacing flattened, damaged or missing original edge profiles.
• Production upholstery: Maintaining consistent edge dimensions across repeated furniture designs.

The firm foam helps reduce the appearance of angular frame edges while providing a resilient foundation for the surrounding upholstery.

For additional cushioning and shaping, combine suitable edge profiles with Upholstery Foam Sheets and Polyester Wadding.

Where wadding is applied to adjoining foam, use compatible Status Fabrics Heavy Duty Spray Adhesive to help prevent the wadding from shifting or bunching during cover fitting.

Fitting 3/4" Polyfoam Edge Roll

The rounded section of the polyfoam profile forms the desired upholstered edge, while the integral flange provides an attachment surface against the furniture frame.

The flange may be secured to a suitable timber frame using compatible upholstery staples, taking care not to crush or distort the rounded foam section.

For installation,

Before attaching the final upholstery covering, check that the profile follows the intended line without twisting, gaps or uneven joins.

Where the edge roll meets adjoining foam, ensure the transition is smooth so that the outline of the profile does not become visible through the finished fabric.

Accurate measurement and cutting are important, particularly around curved arm facings.

Alternative Upholstery Edge Rolls and Profiles

The Plastic P-Shape Edge Roll provides a defined plastic rounded edge, available in 9mm, 13mm and 20mm sizes.

For larger furniture borders, the CC1 50mm x 25mm Polyedge Strip offers a firm D-shaped polyfoam profile supplied in 2-metre lengths.

Other alternatives include paper edge rolls and reconstituted-foam profiles, which offer different levels of firmness and cushioning.

The best choice depends on the required edge shape, furniture-frame construction, available fixing area and finished upholstery design.
