Description
J Perkins 300 x 600 x 3.00mm (1:8) PLY, part number 5521121, is a brown Spanish Gaboon plywood sheet for model-making and prototype work. It has a B/BB grade, with a clear B face and a BB reverse that retains structural integrity with minimal patches. The pale brown timber has a consistent appearance suitable for painted, varnished or coated finishes.
This plywood uses phenol glue manufactured to EN314-2 Class 3. The bonding specification makes it suitable for projects where the material may encounter moisture, including RC watercraft, experimental gliders, architectural models and other model structures. Its uniform timber texture can be sanded to a fine edge and cut with hand tools or CNC machinery, supporting shaped components and detailed construction.
At 3mm thick, the sheet provides a balance between low weight and rigidity for model work. The Spanish Gaboon construction is lighter than many denser hardwood alternatives, while the B/BB surface grading gives builders a choice between a clearer face for visible areas and a structurally sound reverse for less prominent surfaces. The sheet is recommended for users aged 14 and over.

Specifications
B/BB Spanish Gaboon T/O Plywood, phenol glue EN314-2 class 3
300 x 600 x 3.00mm (1:8) PLY Key Features:
- Premium Gaboon Composition: Known for its ultra-lightweight core and remarkably smooth, tight grain, this plywood is the gold standard for high-end model components, marine prototypes, and complex aeronautical forms.
- EN314-2 Class 3 Phenol Bonding: Manufactured with high-performance phenol glue, meeting rigorous Class 3 standards for exterior use. This ensures the material remains structurally sound in high-moisture environments and resists delamination.
- Exceptional Surface Quality: Features a B/BB grading—the "B" face provides a clear, superior surface virtually free of defects, while the "BB" reverse maintains high structural integrity with minimal patches.
- Superior Power-to-Weight Ratio: Significantly lighter than birch or oak alternatives, making it the definitive choice for large-scale structures that require rigidity without the penalty of excessive mass.
- Precision Workability: The soft, uniform texture of Gaboon timber allows for effortless sanding to a feathered edge and clean, splinter-free cutting with both traditional hand tools and CNC machinery.
- Versatile Finishing: The pale, consistent tone of the wood provides an ideal substrate for high-gloss varnishes, specialised marine coatings, or fine-line architectural detailing.
- Demanding Application Ready: Ideal for structural members in RC watercraft, experimental gliders, and sophisticated architectural massing where environmental resilience and a premium finish are non-negotiable.
