How thick is the cork? If it's backed, how thick is the cork before you hit the backing?

Cork is thick. I can insert the full length of a push pin and not go through the backing - that's about 3/4 or an inch. This is an excellent corkboard.

I can answer on the thickness for sure, but I was using jumbo push pins with a 3/8" metal pin part and didn't have an issue.

It's difficult to say without disassembling or damaging the unit. The back is covered with a very thin silver foil, which I tore open to see underneath...a firm, yellowish, non-cork-like material (foam?). My hunch is that the cork facing is a very thin sheet; I estimate (by pushing a pin completely thru) the total thickness of the material that holds pins to be ca. 3/8" or 1 cm. It's solid and holds pins firmly but probably mostly foam.

Ok; answering my own question but posting as a response to another... 3/8" thick.

Closed total thickness maybe 3/8... it's not flimsy or cheapy....I'm very impressed with the quality!!

It is thin woodgrain board , but as you may or may not know this makes a huge difference in lateral stability,I am not sure if cork would be stiff enough to perform the same function. You might want to consider using the factory board and covering the visible inside areas with the cork. I hope the helps.

We have one and the thickness of the spine is about 1/8th" thick. We love it!

I don't know the exact thickness, but it is a very heavy gauge. Not something you could easily bend or dent. I've had mine blow over on a cement driveway many times (because I did not weight it down properly), and it's still like new. Very strong material. Should not be a concern.Hope that helps.

No sure exactly but it's thicker than I thought it would be. My guess would be thicker than 1/2". Probably 5/8.

about 1 inch thick. it's sturdy enough to use for cutting but it will scratch

Estimate - 1/2 " thick. I use it on a sofa bed to help support my back - I read comments that it works, brought it -- and it works.

Not very thick. I actually sent it back because it came with one side completely torn out. I was very unhappy with the quality. Hope this helps!

No, it is good. It has a clamp that helps it stay on. No issues with the cork.

It does not have an adhesive backing, and being rolled up, it wants to curl up on you. It does cut with scissors well enough to be expected from cork.

I did not measure it but from eyeballing it, the backing thickness is roughly 5mm thick. I had this for over 1 year now and it is still functioning like new.

I am not sure how thick this cushion is, maybe 5 to 6 inches. It is very supportive without being very hard. I highly recommend it. I think returning it is easy too if it doesn't work.

It's around 3/16" thick - I have been very happy with mine, quite stable and mounted on a solid wood door for well over a year.

I have not measured the thickness, but I'd guess about 1/8". It's quite sturdy and rigid. I used it to ship a dressage saddle, for which it worked quite well.

I don't have an instrument that could measure such a small thickness accurately. It needs some clearance, but not a lot. It seems as thick as 2 credit cards. That still allows it to be pretty strong, as it is steel. I have had mine for almost 2 years, and it's still like new.
