Honeycomb Features and Benefits

• Benecor's manufacturing process produces honeycomb core with no cell height mismatch
• Intimate honeycomb core to face sheet contact is maintained
• Sandwich structure properties can be engineered to meet design requirements while maintaining lowest weight and cost targets
• Benecor honeycomb cell walls may be slotted or perforated for liquid drainage or gas flow
• Core thickness from 1/4" up to 10" can be delivered in all alloys
• Benecor honeycomb can be roll-formed into complex shapes without cell node breakage
• Benecor can vary cell size and foil thickness to meet core density requirements without need for corrugated cell walls

Slotted cell wall edges for liquid drainage. Typical slot: 0.030" x 0.030"	Perforated cell wall for gas flow. Typical hole diameter: 0.025"
Core thickness: 1/4" up to 10" thick
