Ford Aerospace Limited offer a highly competitive and experienced component manufacturing service from Easipeel material.


Type of Laminates

  • Standard Laminates:

    Laminate sheet made from foils of the same material and the same thickness.

  • Cadmium Plated Laminated Shims:

    Laminated sheet made from the cadmium plated steel foils. The foils normally get cut to the desired finish sizes prior to the cadmium plating and glue application process. This type of a laminate is ideal for applications where corrosion is a concern.

  • Hybrid Laminates:

    Laminates with a combination of two or more materials and/or thicknesses in the same sheet.

    Hybrid laminates might also consist of a thick solid plate with adhesive coated foils of the thickness of your choice on top of it.
