Sapele
Mahogany Ribbon-Stripe |
Ribbon Stripe refers to
the beautiful straight grained quartered and rift sliced veneers used in
this product.
Our Premium Ribbon Stripe Sapele
plywood is applied to a BS1088 okoume marine plywood WBP substrate.
Typical boat applications for the Premium veneer product are for exterior decks and panels. We have sold hundreds of sheets with good success on exterior boat decks when fully and properly sealed. *However it is not warranted for this use. Plywood is constructed with multiple face veneers edged together, which can not be guaranteed. The product must be heavily sealed on all sides and edges with proper marine varnishes. The standard grade thin veneer plywood is for interior use only.
Do not confuse this with Sapele throughout BS 1088 marine plywood. This Premium product has a BS1088 core, but the panel as a whole is not BS1088 certified. The
certified BS1088 product is rotary cut and does not have the ribbon stripe
appearance. |

*This product is produced with Type I exterior glue and is NOT an actual marine grade plywood. It is intended for interior cabin use on boats. It is not guaranteed for any type of exterior use. Even if heavily coated in marine finishes, it could fail. If you intend to use this on an exterior exposure application you must completely seal all edges and faces to keep water from penetrating into the plywood. 4 coats of Smith's clear penetrating epoxy (or equivalent) must be applied to all edges and 2 coats to both faces. A minimum of 10 coats of exterior varnish (Spar varnish or equivalent) must be applied to all edges with at least 6 coats applied to the good face and 2 coats on the back. No warranty is available and never use below the water line. | ||||
Specifications: Core Plywood Bonding Type: The Premium veneer plywood core bonding shall be WBP and meet the test requirements of British Standard BS1088. The Standard veneer plywood core shall be bonded with exterior type glue. Face Plywood Bonding Type: The Premium veneer plywood face bonding shall be WBP glue. The Standard veneer plywood face veneer shall be bonded with exterior type glue. Marine Plywood by Homestead does not warranty exterior type glue bond for exterior applications. However good success has been attained in exterior above water line applications with the Premium veneer panel when all sides and edges are sealed per above instructions. Standard thickness veneer panels shall NOT be used for exterior use. Quality of Core Veneers: The Premium veneer plywood core is composed of BS1088 grade Okoume. The Standard veneer plywood has an exterior grade composed core manufactured from selected untreated tropical hardwoods. Core veneers shall be meranti, okoume or similar. Small splits are permitted, and there is no limitation on the number of pin knots or edge joints. Discoloration is permissible. Veneers need not be matched for color. Quality of Face Veneers: Face veneer shall be rift or quarter sliced. The method of cutting is at the option of the manufacturer unless it is specified by the purchaser at the time of ordering. These shall present a solid surface, free from open defects. They shall be free from knots, other than sound pin knots, of which there shall be no more than 6 in any area 30cm square , and not more than an average of 2 per 30 cm square over the whole area of the board. The veneers shall be reasonably free from irregular grain, due note being taken to the characteristics of the species being used. Isolated pinholes not along the plane of the veneers, and occasional closed splits are permissible. Veneers showing compression failure shall be excluded. Occasional minor discoloration is permissible. Core Veneer Thickness: Tolerances of the core veneers vary as follows. 4mm +.02/-0.6 6mm, +.04/-0.65 9mm, +.06/-0.75 12mm +.09/-0.82 15mm +.1/-0.9 18mm +.12/-0.98 22mm From the above we can assume that 6mm material will arrive at thickness between 6.04 mm and 5.35mm Face Veneer Thickness: Premium face veneer thickness shall be at least 1.2 mm measured before sanding. Standard face veneer thickness shall be at least .6mm measured before sanding. A face veneer may also be applied to the back of the core plywood to balance the sheet but is not mandatory. |
