Halex 6mm plywood underlayment is designed for use under vinyl floors, vinyl composition tile, and for general uses where 1/4 inch plywood is an approved floor underlayment. Its unique 5 ply birch construction gives Halex floor underlayment a significant advantage over more traditional 3 ply floor underlayments in strength, hardness, and durability. Exterior grade phenolic glue provides added insurance against water damage from floor cleaning and occasional flooding caused by plumbing or appliance failures.
Birch is a hard, relatively knot-free wood grown in Northern European forests that is well suited for use as a flooring underlayment. It has 100 percent more indentation resistance than poplar and luaun plywoods and is therefore more resistant to crushing from high-heeled shoes, table and chair legs, and moving appliances. Additionally, the hardness and smoothness of each birch underlayment panel requires less preparation time during installation than other types of plywood.
Halex 6mm floor underlayment is available in three convenient sizes: 4x4, 4x5, and 4x8. The 4x4 size is perfect for bathrooms and other small jobs because it creates less waste than the 4x8 size and is an easy size for storage and transportation. The 4x5 size is ideal for all jobs, both large and small. It causes less waste than 4x8 panels, yet creates 20% fewer seams than a 4x4 panel, while maintaining its easy storage and transportation. The largest of the sizes, the 4x8 panel, is perfect for large jobs, were the fewest possible seams are desired.
Whatever the size, all Halex floor underlayments are available with or without a printed nailing pattern and come with a LIFETIME warranty against staining and manufacturing defects such as core voids, delamination, and out-of-squareness. |
