Closed cell foam used for wedges.
Does anyone know what type of foam is used by makers for foam wedges?

I want to buy a sheet of it and make my own. I ordered a sample piece from ebay, but it is way too soft and fragile.

Is it neoprene?
The one wedge that I have from a maker is sort of like a yoga mat. Maybe I should just buy a yoga mat and cut it up lol.

I don't know. But you can buy just the wedge from Mastermind Tactics. Theirs is pretty durable and comfortable.

Mastermind Tactics is where I actually got the one I have from. I ordered the foam pad rather than the wedge, but I was thinking of buying the material in bulk and cutting it in various shapes and sized as a trial and error for the various holsters I have.

Check McMASTER-CARR under "Raw Materials". They have just about anything you can imagine, including various configurations of open/closed cell foam, EDPM foam, rolled, sheet, thicknesses, etc.
