Product Description

High performance aluminium (or aluminum) honeycomb exactly as supplied to the world's top composites engineering, aerospace and motorsport manufacturers.

Aluminium honeycomb of this specification is also used extensively as the sacrificial bed for laser cutting.

Used correctly, aluminium honeycomb can be used to reduce the weight and increase the stiffness of composite panels in a wide range of applications:

This large 19.1mm / 3/4" cell size honeycomb is suitable for less demanding honeycomb applications especially for large panels used in architectural use (cleanrooms etc), doors, cladding and some flooring applicatons. The 19.1mm / 1/4" cell size is the largest of the 3 cell sizes we offer 'off the shelf' making this our lightest (and most cost effective) honeycomb.

Cell Size and Specification

Our 19.1mm / 3/4" Aluminium Honeycomb is the largest of the 3 cell sizes of honeycomb that we offer.

Smaller cell sizes offer more strength but also more weight and a higher cost, larger cell sizes are lighter and cheaper but not as strong. The 19.1mm / 3/4" cell size is the lightest and cheapest but least strong of our 3 honeycombs but it will still result in a very strong panel suitable for a wide range of applications.

Thickness

Our 19.1mm (3/4") Aluminium Honeycomb is available to buy in standard thicknesses of 10mm, 20mm and 30mm. Please choose the thickness you want from the dropdown list at the top of the page.

Expanded Sheet Sizes

We supply our Aluminium Honeycomb in unexpanded (block) form. This makes them much smaller (and more cost effective) to ship but most importantly ensures that they are delivered undamaged, ready to be easily expanded into a faultless sheet of honeycomb.

The sheets are available to buy 'off the shelf' in blocks which will expand to a full sheet size of 2500mm x 1250mm or to a smaller sheet size of 1250mm x 652mm. Please choose the sheet size you require from the drop-down list at the top of the page.

Questions or Comments


how is the block form expanded to honeycomb?
Easy Composites Reply: Start by using your fingers to tease some of the cells open at the edges of the block. Once you've done this we use a simply 'puller' fashioned from a strip of wood with a series of nails in. We hook the nails through the open cells and then just pull the whole assembly to open the cells. As you expand it you can unhook the cells from over the nails and move them across so they are slightly closer together (the width of the honeycomb reduces as it becomes properly expanded).

It might not sound too sophisticated but it works well and the commercial expanders aren't much different.
