Awesome! I have a freezer chest that wouldn't fit a corny normally (too short), but if I put in a collar it would totally make it work.

I have a new project to work on!

I know this is bring up an old post... but I'm looking for info on the Azek material. I found it at Home Depot locally, but see nothing regarding its insulating ability. Are there different types of Azek trim? I love the idea because I won't need to worry about moisture, and that it apparently offers insulation properties... but want to make sure I'm buying the correct stuff.

Azek is manufactured primarily as a trim so you are not going to find anything on insulation values in any of there standard literature. I am a building material retailer, I could find nothing on the insulation value but it did seem to pass a basic heat reflective test. So I contacted Azek and talked with one of there engineers to find out that it is a PVC foam board having a insulation value similar to the rigid Styrofoam type sheeting. Azek only makes the one of product of this type, if it says Azek on the label it is the right stuff. I have made three keezer collars from this and they work great, good insulation and easy to clean. Do use the adhesive that they offer for this product. The first collar I made I used standard PVC cement. It worked but had no where near the working time that the Azek stuff does. Any other questions, give me a PM and I will give you my cel number and gladly talk with you on how I constructed my collars.
