When NOT to Use This Product

  • Use a higher engineering grade Armourply Hardwood Stress Grade F27 for heavier duty commercial applications. Armourply “The world’s strongest plywood” is manufactured using plantation and regrowth eucalypt veneers. Manufactured under the PAA/JAS-ANZ third party audited quality control program to Australian Standard AS2271, it is designed, tested and approved to tolerate extremes of heat and humidity and to resist shrinkage. Its tolerance of changes in ambient temperature and its toughness make Armourply hardwood ideal as flooring for hard-wearing areas, and is ideal for mezzanine floors. → See ArmourForm F17 Formwork Plywood

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How many reuses can I get from ArmourForm F22?

With proper care and storage, ArmourForm F22 film-faced plywood typically achieves 20+ reuses for wall formwork and 10–15 for slab formwork, depending on conditions and concrete mix.

What is the difference between F22 and F17 formwork plywood?

F22 has a higher stress grade than F17, meaning it can span greater distances between supports and handle higher concrete pressures. F22 is specified for most commercial work; F14 and F17 is suitable for residential and light commercial.

Is ArmourForm available with anti-slip coating?

Yes. ArmourForm is available in both film-faced (smooth, high reuse) and anti-slip (textured, for working platforms and walkways) finishes.
