Default Wear pads...

I need to make a couple that are no longer available. Anyone done this before and know specifically what material would be the best to use? I can make some guesses that will surely work fine, but if anyone has some experience I'd appreciate any insight you can provide. Thanks!

My old Bravo ones were just thin black plastic clipped on. My new SCX ones look like thick teflon with countersunk screws holding them on.

both these - alpha one ss, land and sea sternjack are fairly thick tough pads with countersunk screws to hold them on. I'm going to use filled black high density polyethylene - should work great....
