RAWCELL® Fiber NETPLUS

Description of the product

NETPLUS is a sandwich panel without a cosmetic finish, with an aluminium honeycomb core and glass fibre mesh skins. Main fields of application: furniture, weight-reduction of marble and mosaics.

Layers

1) INTERNAL CORE aluminium honeycomb (Starcell production) aluminium alloy: 3003-3105 series density: 29 - 50 - 56 - 65 kg/m³ cell diameter: 6.35 mm (standard); 10 - 12.7 - 19 mm (on request)

2) ADHESIVE thermosetting (Starcell formula) 3) EXTERNAL SKIN glass fibre mesh (weight of the mesh: 60-100 g/m² per side)

PROPERTIES
  • Good resistance to shear and bending stresses.
  • Good dimensional stability and flatness.
  • Very good compressive strength (due to aluminium honeycomb).
  • Maximum mechanical performance, compared to the high lightness of the panel.
  • Excellent weather resistance.
  • Particularly low price for this product category.
  • Wide operating temperature range.
FIELDS OF APPLICATION
The typical applications of the RAWCELL® Fiber - NETPLUS panel concern the marble, stone, ceramic and, above all, mosaic market, where high mechanical properties are required together with overall moderate weights to simplify the handling of the finished product; the panel is also used in the furniture industry, in particular to produce high-end doors or up-and-over doors; it is supplied in standard or custom sizes to suit all needs.
STORAGE
The RAWCELL® Fiber - NETPLUS panel is a product in the “semi-finished products” category and therefore is subject to further processing; we recommend storing the panels horizontally in a closed and dry environment, possibly away from heat sources and to support them along their edges.
