PN2 Aerospace Grade Aramid Fiber Honeycomb

Product catalog summary
Description:
PN2 aerospace grade aramid fiber honeycomb is known for its excellent flammability properties. It is made from DuPont Nomex® paper and coated with a heat-resistant phenolic resin.
Features:
  • Fire resistant and self-extinguishing
  • High strength-to-weight ratio
  • Corrosion resistant
  • Excellent dielectric properties
  • Thermally insulating
  • High toughness
  • Excellent creep and fatigue performance
  • Good thermal stability
  • Densities as low as 1.5 lb/ft3 (24 kg/m3)
  • Over expanded cell configuration suitable for forming simple curves
  • Compatible with most adhesives used in sandwich composites
Applications:
PN2 honeycomb is used in aircraft galleys, flooring, partitions, aircraft leading and trailing edges, missile wings, radomes, antennas, military shelters, fuel tanks, helicopter rotor blades, and navy bulkhead joiner panels.
Availability:
Available in sheets, blocks, or cut-to-size pieces in both regular hexagonal and over expanded (OV) cell configurations.
Specifications:
  • Cell Sizes: 1/8" - 1/4"
  • Densities: 1.8 pcf - 9.0 pcf
  • Sheet “Ribbon” (L): 48" typical
