Plywood data sheet

Product catalog summary
Introduction: This document provides a comparison of various plywood products offered by World Panel Products Inc. It includes recommendations for specific applications and detailed technical specifications.
Product Recommendations:
  • Lightweight Plywood for Cabinetry: Eurolite, made from Poplar, is recommended for its light weight and stability.
  • Clean Edge Cutting: Sapele, a 100% Mahogany panel, is suggested for achieving the cleanest edge.
  • Rot-Resistant Marine Plywood: Powerply is recommended for its rot-resistant properties.
  • Least Expensive Marine Grade Plywood: HydroCore, manufactured similarly to Powerply, is the most cost-effective option.
  • Best Strength to Weight Ratio: Okoume is noted for its excellent strength to weight ratio, though it is non-durable.
  • Most Durable Plywood: Powerply, made from Gurgan, is highly durable, passes BS1088 tests, and has a Lloyds certificate.
Technical Specifications:
  • Weight per m3 (KG/M3): Ranges from 480 (Eurolite) to 740 (Powerply and HydroCore).
  • Bending Strength (EN310/93): Varies by thickness and orientation, with longitudinal and transversal values provided for each product.
  • Modulus of Elasticity (MOE): Detailed for both longitudinal and transversal bending and tension, indicating flexibility and stiffness.
  • Tensile and Compressive Strength (DIN 52377/78, DIN 52376/78): Values are provided for both longitudinal and transversal directions.
  • Screwholding Strength (EN 320/93): Indicates the ability to hold screws, with values ranging from 8 to 15 mm of thickness.
  • Shear Strength and Stiffness: Factory tests provide shear strength and stiffness values in thickness and plane.
Conclusion: The document serves as a guide for selecting plywood based on specific needs such as weight, durability, and cost. It provides a comprehensive comparison of technical properties to aid in decision-making.

A) Eurolite, which is made from Poplar is very light in weight and still very stable Q) Which plywood will cut the cleanest edge? A) Sapele, which is a 100% Mahogany panel Q) My Marine Plywood needs to be rotresistant, which should I choose? A) Powerply is rot-resistant Q) Which is your least expensive Plywood that is Marine Grade? A)HydroCore, which is made with the same manufacturing process as Powerply. Q) Which has the best strength to weight ratio in your product range? A) Okoume is best, although remember this specie is non-durable Q) What is the MOST durable plywood you have? A) Powerply, which is a very durable product made from Gurgan, it passes the BS1088 tests, has the Lloyds certificate, and is also rot-resistant World Panel Products is not responsible for the reproduction of the above data, nor are we responsible for you using the data and having problems arise out of the manufacturing.
