PK2 Kevlar® N636 Para-Aramid Fiber Honeycomb

Product catalog summary

Description:
PK2 Kevlar® N636 para-aramid fiber honeycomb is a lightweight, high-strength, non-metallic material made from para-aramid fiber paper impregnated with phenolic resin. It offers superior performance in weight, strength, stiffness, and fatigue compared to Nomex® and Korex®.

Features:

  • Up to 40% higher properties than comparable Nomex® honeycomb.
  • High strength-to-weight ratio.
  • Excellent thermal and moisture stability.
  • Improved shear strength and modulus.
  • Conforms to smoke, toxicity, and flammability standards.
  • High toughness.

Applications:
PK2 honeycomb is used in various applications such as boat decks, aircraft galleys, flooring, partitions, aircraft edges, radomes, flaps, access panels, and doors. It can replace fiberglass and Nomex® honeycomb to reduce weight without compromising performance.

Availability:
Available in sheets, blocks, or custom sizes with hexagonal cell configurations. High shear (HS) configurations are available for selected densities.

Specifications:

  • Cell Sizes: 1/8" - 3/16"
  • Densities: 2.0 pcf - 6.0 pcf
  • Sheet Dimensions: Length 48", Width 96"
  • Tolerances: Length +3", Width +6", Thickness ±.006" (under 2" thick), Density ±10%, Cell Size ±10%

Quality and Certification:
Manufactured under ISO 9001:2000 certified quality management system. Additional certifications include Nadcap, AS/EN/JISQ 9100, ISO 9001:2008, and ISO 14001:2004.

PK2 Kevlar® N636 Para-Aramid Fiber Honeycomb-1

PK2 Kevlar N636 Para-Aramid Fiber Honeycomb ® Description: PK2 Kevlar® N636 para-aramid fiber honeycomb is an extremely lightweight, high strength, non-metallic honeycomb manufactured with para-aramid fiber paper (DuPont Kevlar® N636 or equivalent) impregnated with a heat resistant phenolic resin. This core material exhibits improved performance characteristics over Nomex® and Korex® in the areas of weight, strength, stiffness and fatigue. Applications: PK2 honeycomb is a high performance non-metallic core which can replace fiberglass and Nomex® honeycomb core materials to achieve significant weight reductions without sacrificing performance in most applications. PK2 honeycomb uses include boat decks, aircraft galleys, flooring, partitions, aircraft leading and trailing edges, radomes, flaps, access panels and doors. • Up to 40% higher properties than comparable density Nomex® honeycomb PK2 honeycomb is available in sheets, blocks or cut to size pieces in regular hexagonal cell configurations. Selected densities available in high shear (HS) configuration for higher stiffness. • Extremely high strength to weight ratio Cell Sizes: • Excellent thermal and moisture stability • Improved shear strength and modulus • Conforms to stringent smoke, toxicity and flammability standards Length: Width: Thickness: Density: Cell Size: • High toughness Special dimensions, sizes, tolerances and specifications can be provided upon request.
