Honeycomb Features & Specifications

Curved Beneflex Honeycomb Core
  • 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
