Parica and Faveira Plywood

#1 Post by doncolga »

Hey,

I got message from a supplier:

what I have in stock is a 10mm(13/32") 5 ply Parica which is similar to a Poplar. Very color consistant and light in weight. I also have a 13.2mm (17/32") 7 ply Faveira. This is probably more on the lines of what you are looking for. It is dense and heavy and would be ideal for speaker boxes.

Found this for Faveira:

Janka Hardness: 670 pounds
Strength (MOR): 9,717 psi
Stiffness (MOE): 1,670 1000 psi
Density (KG/m3): 470



Anyone familiar with those?

Thanks!

Donny

Never mind...they normally only sell by the container :shock: but would do a pallet (70 4x8 sheets) for me...that may make my wife angry :roll: Any's, seems like I've got a pretty good source for BB, which should be the very best anyway.
