Description

End Grain Balsa is the most widely used core material, and is best suited for dynamic structures where performance and efficiency are key. Sheets are constructed from small individual blocks of end grain balsa wood, each bonded to a light scrim fabric that holds blocks together during lamination. As a result, this core will conform to practically any simple curve and most gradual compound curves.
