An elongated fibrous insulation blanket is pre-cut for custom fitting the
insulation blanket into wall, floor, ceiling and roof cavities of
different widths formed by the framework of a building. The blanket has at
least one, preferably two or three, series of cuts extending between major
surfaces of the blanket with successive cuts of each series of cuts being
separated by a series of separable connectors located intermediate the
major surfaces of the blanket. Each series of separable connectors hold
together adjacent sections of the blanket for handling, but are separable
by hand so that the blanket can be handled as a unit for insulating a
cavity having a predetermined width or easily separated by hand into two
or more sections at one or more of the series of separable connectors for
insulating a cavity having a lesser width. Either major surface of the
blanket may have a facing bonded thereto with one or more perforated lines
or overlapping tabs in the facing permitting the facing to be separated by
hand at each series of cuts and separable connectors. Preferably, the
perforations of any perforated line(s) in the facing are closed by the
bonding agent bonding the facing to the blanket so that the facing
functions as a vapor barrier in spite of the perforations.
