Aluminium honeycomb sheet supplier needed

Post

Hi all, this may be a bit of a long shot and I hope this post is allowed. But we’re looking for a supplier for ally honeycomb sandwich. Got a 1980 F1 tub in after a heavy shunt which needs a complete new main chassis channel. It’s 3/8” small cell honeycomb with 20 swg L72 (now L163) on one side and 20swg NS4 on the other, we’ve pretty much resorted to laminating our own, but thought I’d just put this out there to see if anyone can advise. Lots of commercial spec stuff available but it’s all 3 or 5 series which is fine for one side but too soft for the other. Thoughts appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry to start up an old thread again but are you still searching for the seller? any updates would be appreciated.

The OP has only made one post on the forum since joining - the one at the top of the thread. I doubt they even read the forum since.
