Kay-Cel Core
High Density Polyurethane Core Material
Polyurethane Panels
Kayco Composites manufactures a rigid, closed-cell, high-density polyurethane foam core panel called KAY‑CEL CORE. The core panel can be manufactured in two types, reinforced and unreinforced. The reinforced panel is a sandwich construction with fiberglass reinforcements. The fiberglass reinforcements are offered in several schedules. The panel's densities range from 20 to 35 lb/ft3 and thicknesses from 1/2" to 2-1/4".
Advantages:
- Excellent Strength-to-Weight ratio
- Foam Reinforced with fiberglass increases mechanical properties
- Lightweight - 30% Lighter Than Marine Plywood
- Closed Cell Cross-Linked Polymer Foam will not absorb water
- Will Not Rot...Excellent Replacement for Wood
Densities:
- Standard Densities range from 20 to 35 lb/ft3
Thicknesses:
- Thicknesses range from 1/2" to 2-1/4" in 1/4" increments
Panel Sizes:
- Standard size - 4' x 8'
- Other options include 5' x 8', 4' x 6', 4' x 10' and multiple other options
Reinforcement and Nomenclature:
- RA - Foam reinforced with heavy-weight woven fiberglass
- RB - Foam reinforced with medium-weight woven fiberglass
