5.5mm Hardwood Structural Ply 2440 x 1220mm
Product Code:
ST_HD_PLY_05_F
Our Red Hardwood Faced Plys are manufactured in China which makes this ply very reasonably priced. The ply conforms to EN standards 314 and 636
EN314 relates to bonding quality, this quality is determined by the type of adhesive and the quality of the core veneer. The red faced ply conforms to Bond Class II.
EN 636 takes into account the bond quality and the biological durability of the wood species used in the plywood. This biological durability refers to the natural capability of the wood to resist the detrimental effects of fungal decay and beetle larvae.
Ply Finishing and applications
Whatever class a ply might achieve the product still requires finishing with a product suitable for the specific application. Cut section edges definitely need an end-seal style of product and this may be a UV resistant stain or more conventional paint finish. Even marine ply needs careful application of an appropriate water resistant finish which must be applied when the ply is dry enough for the finish to adhere.
This red hardwood faced ply has hardwood surface veneers and the core veneers are usually machined from poplar or euctalyptus wood. This ply can be used in a wide range of interior applications, but Marine Ply 5.5mm or Malay Ply would be more suitable. This is particularly the case if the ply is going to be cut nto smaller sections.
