I wouldn't go with less than .014" thickness latex for a vacbed. If you go too thin you run the risk of it not being strong enough for good resistance, plus there is greater chance for a rip or tear.

If you use a latex too thick then you don't get that cool "encased" feeling or "second skin" feeling that people like about latex, as a thicker latex won't conform to the bodies contours enough.
