The Gill Corporation announces new Gillcore® HF fiberglass honeycomb core
The Gill Corporation (TGC) announces new Gillcore® HF fiberglass honeycomb core meeting all requirements of AMS 3715. TGC began developing fiberglass honeycomb in response to industry demand from aerospace customers around the world.
The core is produced with a substrate consisting of woven fiberglass cloth reinforced with heat resistant phenolic resin for improved moisture resistance over traditional aramid fiber substrates. It is suitable for high temperature applications requiring a high degree of forming and high moisture areas. TGC processes rolls of fiberglass cloth through the same manufacturing equipment as aramid honeycomb cores. TGC successfully completed all AMS 3715 test requirements. TGC is working with other customers to meet their qualification requirements.
Testing performed includes:
– Plate shear strength and modulus, Ribbon and Transverse
– Stabilized compression strength and modulus
– Flatwise tension
– 65F, RTA, 180F, 250F, 350F
– Wet – RTA, 180F, 250F, 350F
You can create a free technological watch and keep you updated about all these subjects.
