Marine Plywood And Their Uses
Marine Plywood also known as waterproof plywood, this type of
plywood is made using water-resistant hardwood layers and
gorilla-strength glue. Marine plywood is freqently used in
construction of docks and boats. And it performs longer in both

attack.

Uses in Boat Making
If you love sailing or fishing, then you most likely own a boat.
Buying a boat is not an inexpensive purchase by any stretch of the
imagination. You can, however, find less expensive older boats that
are not made out of fiberglass but marine plywood instead. This
type of plywood is pliable and can be formed into the structure of
a boat. With proper sealing on the inside and out, the marine
plywood will be completely waterproof.
Uses in Dock
You will see that older docks are made from planks of wood such
as 2x4s that are treated to be weatherproof. Though this is common,
the lumber has to be sanded and treated each year, whereas marine
plywood can go several seasons without having to have another
treatment of weatherproofing.
Uses in Bathroom and Kitchen Walls
The two areas of the home that are the most prone to moisture is
the kitchen and the bathroom. It is inevitable that you will spill
something on the kitchen floor or have water splash on the wall. In
the bathroom you have a shower, and a tub or toilet can overflow.
Using marine plywood will prevent your floor from rotting and
deforming.
Uses in Caravan Making
Marine plywood is use as resorting of old caravan or create a
new one. While its not neccessary to use such a high grade some
people do prefer it as its able to withstand any future leaks while
providing years of great service.

Advantage of Marine Plywood Over Regular Plywood
Whether used as a floor or a subfloor, marine plywood resists
rotting, warping and shrinking. It resists humidity from steam and
can stave off absorbing stagnant water. It even holds up well
against boiling water! This makes it a superb option as an
underlayment for your kitchen or bathroom floor. At lumberyards, it
is usually stored indoors, and this also enhances its moisture-free
nature. Marine plywood is also stronger and more durable than
regular plywood, which has only three layers. Marine plywood has
five or more layers that are bound together with waterproof
adhesive, which allows it to bear heavier loads and repel moisture
from its core. As a result, you can use a thinner sheet that will
have the strength of a thicker, regular sheet of plywood.
