WELCOMEWelcome to the Product Selection Catalog of US Blanks. We are dedicated to offering unmatched valuethrough quality, selection, and service. The products we offer represent the latest in foam technology anddesign, both classic and contemporary.Our mission at US Blanks is to establish a close partnership with our customers to produce the bestsurfboard possible. We have a commitment to stay constantly on the leading edge of current design &technology and to maintain the highest level of quality while offering a wide range of products for customordered blanks, including an extensive variety of blank sizes, weights, stringers, rockers and glue colors.If there is anything we can help you with at any time, please let us know. Our success will only be measured when we have satisfied your needs to the best of our abilities.OUR COMPANYThe US Blanks team is comprised of former Clark Foam employees and leaders in the surf industry, withover 125 years combined experience in making polyurethane foam surfboard blanks.We chose to operate in California to provide the best possible service to our customers. Prior to establishing our factory we obtained all the permits required to operate a polyurethane plant in California. Webelieve we are the only blank manufacturer that is 100% legal to operate in California. Due to the highlyprofiled nature of using the various chemicals required to manufacture polyurethane foam, it was veryimportant to us that we exercised ALL environmental and safety precautions and requirements to ensurethe safety of our employees and neighboring areas, and to solidify the longevity of our company in themarketplace. At US Blanks, we will continue to take all necessary steps to ensure our position at theforefront of environmental and safety standards.BLANK PICTURESThe wire frame diagrams presented in this catalog are derived from the master plugs and are drawn ona scale of 1:12 for blank sizes shorter than 8’0”, and 1:16 for blank sizes 8’0” and longer. The rocker istaken from the “natural” rocker template and is also to scale. These measurements should enable you topick the optimum size blank for each board.Since the measurements are taken from the master plugs, you may find the actual measurements of theblanks vary slightly. This is due to the use of mold release, unpredictable shrinkage during molding, railfill and rough rails. All of these factors can cause slight measurement variations from blank to blank.Volume measurements are also listed for each blank size. These measurements are calculated usingthe Shape 3D scan method created from the original plugs. Shape 3D files for each blank size are alsoavailable upon request. Please call our office for more details.To help in identifying current rocker trends we have listed some of the most popular “public rockers” foreach particular blank size.
FOAM SELECTIONUS Blanks manufactures a water blown, Toluene Diisocyanate based polyester polyurethane blank. Wefeel this combination provides the best physical properties required by a surfboard, resulting in the strongest blank possible, and yields the best performance qualities. The quality, stability and consistency of aTDI based polyurethane blank has long made it the choice of the majority of board builders.While there are many formulations available for a TDI based blank, we believe our formulation providesthe optimum strength while maintaining ease of shaping and maximum flex. We are continuously finetuning our formulation to supply the shaper with a blank that exceeds industry standards for these characteristics.US Blanks has also spent considerable time and resources exploring alternate technologies in surfboardmanufacturing. The rapidly progressing developments of epoxies have brought forth a very viable alternative for many board builders. As a result of our extensive research and development we are nowoffering our new alternative product line of “Superfused Molded EPS Foam Blanks.” These blanks arecurrently offered in 6 different sizes, 2 different densities as well as several different thicknesses givingunlimited options to the shaper. Recognizing the importance of this technology we wanted to ensure thatour customers are provided with the very best EPS foam on the market. Although our SUPERFUSEDEPS product line is new, it has already set a new industry standard and we look forward to advancing anddeveloping this technology even further into the future. Our EPS blanks can be found immediately following the Polyurethane Blank Section in this catalog.DENSITY COMPARISONTo provide a truly custom blank, we offer several densities from which to choose. At this time we offerevery blank size in every weight, however not all weights will be stocked in all sizes. Sales will dictatewhat sizes are stocked in what density.Actual pounds per cubic foot of a given weight foam will vary with blank size due to mold compaction andskin to core ratio. The comparisons listed are based on the difference in pounds of foam used to poureach density and is an average among blank sizes.The density of a blank will be identified by the color of the paint on the nose.Densities are listed from lightest to heaviest:RED, approximately 6% - 7% lighter than BLUE.BLUE is considered our stock density and is the basis for comparison.GREEN, approximately 9% - 10% heavier than BLUE
CLASSIC, approximately 30% - 32% heavier than BLUE. These blanks will be identified with a browntipped nose.TOW-IN, approximately 205% heavier than BLUE. These blanks will be identified with a black tippednose.BLANK SIZE AVAILABILITYOur processing cycle limits the number of molds that can be in production at any given time. Any blanksize that is not in production relies on factory stocking to fill orders. There are a number of sizes whichremain in constant production; all others will rotate in and out of production based on inventory and orderlevels.When a mold is removed from production we try to stock for anticipated orders up to the time it shouldrotate back into production. All blank sizes are inventoried in the BLUE density, with most of the shortboards also inventoried in RED and the longer boards also inventoried in GREEN. A limited quantity ofCLASSIC will be stocked for a select few long board sizes, and a couple of short board sizes will havelimited TOW-IN blanks available. We rarely stock short boards in GREEN or long boards in RED, therefore these will have to be custom ordered, along with most CLASSICS, REGULARS and TOW-INS. Ourentire inventory is stocked unglued.colored foamUS Blanks offers colored foam for stringers and full colored foam blanks.Our colored stringer foam is made in Classic density and is available in stock colors of Blue, Red, Yellow,Green, Black, Pink and Gray. We formulate our colors to be bright and bold. Occasionally we may haveadditional colors available.Colored blanks are available for all sizes and all densities on a custom order basis. We offer coloredblanks in the same colors as our stringer foam, and can also formulate any shade of the stock colors.Custom colors are available for minimum quantity orders. Let your imagination run wild as we can createunlimited colored blank combinations. Mix and match colors in any given blank - even with your parabolicrails!It is possible to develop a proprietary custom color. Please contact our office for information.
STRINGER SELECTIONUS Blanks currently offers four wood types for stringer selection: basswood, red cedar, balsa, and 4mmunidirectional plywood.Our in-house mill capabilities allow us to offer any thickness of wood stringer, including wedges. Somelimits are set by the length or width of wood available. Our red cedar comes 6” wide and will not fit all rockers, and our plywood has a length limit of 8’1”.Multiple stringer T-bands, off-set stringers, and Models A’s are all part of our custom stringer capability,along with any conceivable straight cut.Parabolic rail stringer configurations are also now available in a variety of different blanks sizes. Ourstandard parabolic templates can be used in any of our shortboard sizes to suit your finished board dimensions and requirements. For a list of our template outlines and configurations please refer to the parabolicspecification pages at the end of this catalog.ROCKER SELECTIONEveryone knows how important rocker is to the performance of a surfboard. US Blanks offers customrockers to be made at no charge, including private rocker templates.While our master plugs were designed with a Natural Rocker that fits a variety of designs, we know thatindividual style and design will require adjustments.At US Blanks we use the deck line to adjust rocker, and all adjustments are referenced to the NaturalRocker. If desired we can adjust rocker to the bottom. Adjustments can be made from almost any pointon a blank and from one blank size to another. Unless instructed, all rocker adjustments will be madefrom the center of the blank. If the adjustment is made from a point other than center, the adjustmentpoint will be part of the description. Rockers transferred from one blank size to another will require amatch point. Radical rocker adjustments may result in bumps or dips created in the deck line.Private rocker templates will be named and used only upon permission of the owner.QUALITY GUARANTEEUS Blanks will stand behind the quality of our blanks. If you receive a blank that has been determined tobe an inferior product, based on US Blanks quality standards, we will replace the blank. In addition, if thatblank has been shaped we will credit the customer with an additional blank or a scheduled shaping fee.In order to be eligible for either credit, the inferior blank must be returned to US Blanks. We will not coverthe costs of any work on the blank completed after the first notice of a problem. Refer to the US BlanksSales Policy for specific details.
