PROBALSA

ProBalsa - A high-density organic core material with high mechanical properties

This is a high-density organic core material made from end grain balsa wood. The micro honeycomb structure offers exceptional shear and compressive strength.

In addition, ProBalsa offers good fatigue properties, low Fire, Smoke and Toxicity (FST) properties. All ProBalsa materials can be machined using conventional woodworking tools. It can be drilled, milled, turned and sawn to close tolerances. ProBalsa is compatible with most resin and manufacturing processes and is also suitable for elevated temperature cure prepreg systems.
