18mm plywood sheets strike the perfect balance between affordability and great quality, making it a brilliant material for a host of different applications. The method for constructing plywood sheets involves layering sheets of wood at contrasting 90-degree angles and securing them with glue and compression for a strong and hard-wearing material. The result is a product that can withstand weight well and resists shrinkage, warping and twisting. We offer custom-cutting services that enable you to purchase plywood sheets in any size or shape to suit your needs.
Key Features
- Strength - The cross-laminated layered construction provides impressive strength for the thickness. 18mm plywood can handle heavy static and dynamic loads.
- Stability - Layers bonded at perpendicular angles resist expansion and contraction to provide sheet stability.
- Affordability - Less expensive than solid timber, plywood makes an economical structural material.
- Workability - Plywood machines, cuts, drills, and sands with ease using standard woodworking tools.
- Weather Resistance - Proper exterior glues and treatments allow plywood to be suitable for outdoor uses.
- Versatile - From indoor furniture to outdoor construction, plywood has vast uses across industries.
- Consistency - Factory pressing and gluing ensures consistency not found in solid wood.
With its balanced properties, 18mm plywood can tackle heavy-duty projects while remaining an affordable and workable sheet material.
Uses
With its rugged durability and 18mm thickness, 18mm plywood sheets are ideal for a wide variety of demanding applications:
- Construction - The sturdy 18mm profile makes plywood suitable for structural applications like concrete formwork, hoardings, temporary flooring, wall sheathing, and small building projects.
- Flooring - Plywood's dimensional stability is advantageous for subfloors and underlayment, providing a flat and rigid surface for the finished floor.
- Furniture - From cabinet carcases to shelves, counters, and tabletops, 18mm plywood has the strength to form the core structure of heavy-duty furniture.
- Packaging - For hardwearing transit and storage crates 18mm plywood can withstand the knocks and loading pressures.
- Joinery - Plywood's ability to be precision machined makes it perfect for structural joinery tasks indoors and out.
- Vehicle Outfitting - The ruggedness of plywood is useful for truck, trailer, and van linings, floors, and storage systems.
