Fresh off the roll, the SM600L typically measures between 3\/4 and 1 inch in thickness. Over time, it will naturally expand, although this process can take several weeks. For ease of installation, it's advisable to fit the material while it's still compressed and allow it to expand in place. The material's expansion is often aided by the vibrations from driving and exposure to heat, allowing it to 'fluff up'. The SM600L has a standard thickness of 42mm (1.65 inches) but can expand up to 2 inches, especially when hung from the ceiling, depending on the available space. Importantly, Thinsulate(TM) will only expand to fill the space it's given, without exerting pressure that could warp or bow trim panels. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe highly recommend pairing it with our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tecvan.ca\/products\/duck-liner-camper-van-conversion-insulation?srsltid=AfmBOoqqo6OmKJEViAFe0Mve_Fdp6yiBJa1kkQUk0t6gvVQqsxNGS8bC\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eTec Vanlife DUCK Liner\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.
