XROSSWATER DECKING MATERIAL
Product Laminated material overlaid with a phenol film or with UV-resistant film on both the sides. The wear side has a rough wire mesh pattern (W); the reverse side normally is smooth (F), although it can have wire mesh pattern, too (grade W/W).The rough wire mesh overlay withstands hard wear and it can be used for many different floor-paneling purposes.
Applications Vehicle floors, pedestrian bridges, storage and factory floors, storage shelves, loading platforms, ship decks, pier surfaces. In general – applications where high wear resistance and/or good anti-slip properties are required.
Advantage The wire mesh surface has high wear resistance and anti-slip properties, surface is weather and waterproof, resists to commonly used chemicals. Environmentally friendly.
Gluing classes Laminate glued with waterproof phenol formaldehyde resin adhesive. Bonding is resistant to weather and boiling water. It meets requirements of the following standards:
EN 314 / 3 rd class; BS 1203 / H4 (previously WBP); DIN 68705 Part 3 / type BFU 100.
Overlaying The panels are overlaid with a phenol film with a wire mesh pattern imprinted during hot pressing process. The unit weight of the film is 220g/m2. On special request, panels can be overlaid with wear resistant phenol film or/and multi-layer phenol film. Large Mesh (grade WL) – 2.5 mesh per 1cm, Small Mesh (grade WS) – 4.5 mesh per 1cm.
Overlaying characteristics The overlaying surface is highly resistant to abrasive wear and it does not crack. It is also resistant to weather and moisture as well as commonly used chemicals. The wire mesh patterned surface provides high anti-slip properties. The panels can be machined. During machining extra hard cutting tools are recommended.
Abrasion resistance according to the Taber
Edges sealing Edges of the panels are matched with the face against absorption of moisture with acrylic paint and all edges are clamped in the Xrosswater Aluminium frame.
