Plywood: Waferboard (OSB)
Made from chips of wood. Strong and economical. Used mostly for roof and exterior wall sheeting.
A note on plywood grading: A finished plywood sheet is designated by the grades of its face and back veneers respectively, with ratings of A (sanded and smooth) through D (checks, knots, and splitting permitted). We stock 2 common types: A-C: With an A face and a C back, this is a common plywood for use where one smooth, solid face required, such as cabinet making, signs and some types of painted paneling applications. C-D-X: A common panel for use on roof and wall sheathing where strength and moisture durability are important, but because the panel will be covered, appearance is not a big factor.
Plywood: Hardwood
We stock “veneer core” oak and birch plywoods.
Product tip: Veneer core is the most common core type, with all inner plies made from softwood or hardwood veneer. Structural strength and stability make veneer core panels particularly suited to cabinet and casework. Other core types are “solid core” with an MDF or particle board core, “Fiber-ply core” a combination of veneer and solid core, and “lumber core,” where veneer core crossbrands are laminated on both sides of glued-up strips of lumber.
