Kemlite Co Inc, a subsidiary of Crane Co, has introduced a composite liner panel called ArmorTuf. Manufactured with thermoset resin matrix and woven fiberglass reinforcement similar to bullet-resistant materials, ArmorTuf is designed for refrigerated trailers and as a long-term replacement for plywood liners in dry van trailers. It can also be used as the ceiling in a refrigerated trailer to help prevent damage from forklift loading operations.
The puncture strength of ArmorTuf is almost four times greater than conventional liner panels.
Not only is ArmorTuf more durable, but it enhances the interior appearance of the trailer. The backside of the panel has been tested and adheres well to injected urethane foam and to other adhesives commonly used in trailer production.
ArmorTuf is offered in a 0.05" and 0.075" thickness and in widths up to 104" and coil lengths up to 300 feet. Kemlite soon will offer ArmorTuf in a thickness of 0.100". For full details, contact Kemlite, PO Box 2429, Joliet IL 60434.
