Hexcel Hexweb Source

I was looking for a couple small pieces of hexcel aluminum honeycomb.
I want it for "airflow directionalization" project. Want the thermals
to start flowing upward only ;-)

Hexweb CR III or similar material
Either 2 pieces of 4”x7” minimum or a single piece 7x7” min.
I think any of these products would work approxmately .600" thick.
1/8’, 5/32” or 3/16” cell
5052 or 5056 alloy
Any foil thickness.

Does anyone have a source?

Thanks
Chris

I got a bunch of the stuff used in the ASK-21 fuselage. It isn't
aluminum, some kind of plastic. Will that do?

I buy it all the time in small and large quantities, and in many cell
and thickness dimensions, from:

http://www.honeylitelouvers.com/whatis.html

I use it for lighting, but here is what they say:

HONEYCOMB: The "honeycomb" material that is the basis of our products
was originally developed as a low density-high strength core for
structural use, primarily for the aircraft industry. Utilizing its
intrinsic characteristics, we have developed a family of effective and
versatile glare control devices.


REDUCE GLA Honeylite louvers help control brightness from a
variety of light sources. Whether you are a lighting designer or a
manufacturer, we can help you control glare. From MR11 point sources
to studio high output fluorescent fixtures, we have louvers and
accessories tailored to the application.

Hope that helps,
Brian

I have some I got from Hexcell and Plascor as samples some time back
for a similar project that I would be happy to share a piece with you.
My pieces are 1/8" cell, 5/8" T and 003 foil. I use it for an air
straightener in the bell mouth inlet of the exhaust vents I make.

Put masking tape on both sides of it for drawing your pattern and
protecting it while cutting it out on a bandsaw. The cell edges need
to stay clean/tidy and they are fragile...

PM me...
