Balsa Wood
Product Code: SDF-COR-068
Balsa Wood: End-grain balsa core with 150 kg/m³ nominal density for marine, wind, transport and industrial sandwich structures.
Why does it matter?
Core material directly affects stiffness, resin consumption, impact behaviour and production cycle. Process and surface format matter alongside density.
Application and selection checklist
- Define load, thickness and weight targets.
- Verify resin and process compatibility.
- Choose grooves, perforation and contour-cut format for the flow plan.
- Measure resin consumption and surface quality on a sample panel.
For product matching, samples and quotation, see the core-material selection guide.
Technical Details
Technical values are transcribed from the linked manufacturer document or, where equipment has no TDS, from verifiable information in the product name. Use the current TDS/SDS, batch certificate and an actual production trial together for design and process decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which application suits Balsa Wood?
End-grain balsa core with 150 kg/m³ nominal density for marine, wind, transport and industrial sandwich structures. Final suitability must be validated for substrate, process conditions and a small-scale trial.
What information should be supplied before ordering?
Provide substrate, production method, target temperature, part size, annual consumption and existing equipment details.
Are TDS values guaranteed design values?
No. Unless explicitly stated otherwise, they are typical values under manufacturer conditions; current TDS/SDS and batch documents take precedence.
