AHK KRAFT PAPER/PHENOLIC COATED HONEYCOMB

AHK is a structural Kraft paper honeycomb which conforms to MIL-H-21040 C and ASTM E 1091. It is primarily used as a high strength low cost core material in Air Transportable Shelters. Not to be confused with commercial grade paper honeycomb, AHK is coated with phenolic resin after expanding and then heat cured imparting superior strength and water resistance to the material. The material exhibits high strength characteristics and is water resistant. It also provides good thermal insulation. It is available in two cell sizes and five densities to suit most purposes. Typical applications include light weight wall panels for shelters, shelving, and non-structural facia panels for high rise construction.
PRODUCT DESIGNATION

A variety of cell sizes, paper weights, and resin coatings weights are available. Minimum strength characteristics are illustrated later in this document. The products are designated as follows:

SPECIFICATIONS

AHK Kraft honeycomb conforms to MIL-H-21040 C and ASTM E 1091. AHK Kraft paper honeycomb has been found to be very effective withstanding hot/wet environments. Mechanical properties are found later in this document.

AVAILABILITY

AHK is supplied in standard sheet sizes of 48″ L by 96″ W. The sheet thickness can be custom cut from .250 inches to 18 inches thick depending on the material cell size and density.

Special sheet sizes, both larger and smaller are available on a special order basis. Because of the special size, a minimum order may be required.
