XtraPly PSF All Birch

XtraPly PSF All Birch

NOTE: Other sizes and thickness may be available. Inquire with a McCausey representative.

Composed of 100% Birch wood veneers, bonded with exterior adhesive, and over-laid with phenolic surface film (PSF) on both sides. Considered to be the highest quality concrete forming product on the market today. The usage of select Birch wood veneer minimizes the potential for grain-telegraphing and the multi-layer construction provides superior strength properties. The phenolic surface film is very resistant to the effects of concrete ingredients and moisture penetration. When properly cared for, this product can sustain 60 or more concrete pours. Because XtraPly PSF is very strong and durable, it is also acceptable for sub-surface trench shoring, and a multitude of other industrial applications.

XtraPly Birch PSF

Composed of Douglas Fir wood veneers, bonded with exterior adhesive, and over-laid with a resin-impregnated film surface that is resistant to the alkaline ingredients found in concrete. Panel life can be anywhere from 30 to 60 pours, depending upon which HDO film surfaces are chosen and of course, how the panel is cared for. HDO plywood is also suitable for road signage, or any other application demanding a strong and smooth surface.

High Density Overlay - HDO

Similar to High Density Overlay (HDO), Medium Density Overlay (MDO) is also composed of Douglas Fir wood veneers which are bonded with exterior adhesive. But However, MDO is surfaced with a resin-treated fiber paper overlay, that is a little less resistant to the harsh effects of concrete ingredients.

When properly cared for, the panel life can be anywhere from 5 to 15 concrete pours. There are many other applications where MDO plywood is suitable, such as truck trailer lining and signage intended to be painted.

Medium Density Overlay - MDO

Composed of either Douglas Fir or Southern Pine wood veneer, bonded with exterior adhesive. Commonly referred to as BB/OES this product is lightly coated with forming oil, and edge sealed to help minimize moisture penetration. Since there is no official overlay applied to this product, grain telegraphing is inevitable likely and panel life is lessened considerably. Depending upon care for the field maintenance of this product, panel life expectancy is approximately likely to be 5 to 10 pours. For obvious reasons, BB Plyform is commonly used when the surface quality of the finished concrete is not critical and blemishes are permissible, or perhaps hidden below ground level.
