Could anybody tell me the correct name for the foam for a HC14T ?
I need to repair a big crash and want to buy a piece of foam as the original one

That old foam would not be available. Was sliced by Clarke Foam that is no longer in business. We most recently used 1/4" 4# PVC. Depending on the size of the area, you can fill with glass and disregard the foam. |

Thx for answer !!!! It is a "big" hole ( +- 40x40 cm ), so I prefer place foam there. |

I could be dead wrong on this, but I believe the purpose of the foam was to provide shape and back the fiberglass and resin. You could probably use any foam in a can from any marine supply once you get all the exterior ground back. Then shape the foam and glass it. Here's a link to a short video explanation.
