The honeycomb design provides a higher strength-to-weight ratio than solid sheets. These cores are often used as a lightweight alternative to solid aluminum and also for sound insulation. 3000 series aluminum stands up to outdoor use, as well as exposure to chemicals. It offers a good combination of strength, formability, and weldability.

A honeycomb core is bonded between two aluminum sheets for rigidity. These panels offer a higher strength-to-weight ratio than solid sheets, so they're often used as a lightweight alternative to solid aluminum. They're also used for sound insulation. They are painted white and covered with a protective peel-off film. 3000 series aluminum stands up to outdoor use, as well as exposure to chemicals. It offers a good combination of strength, formability, and weldability.

As a strong, lightweight, and buoyant alternative to solid panels, these aramid honeycomb cores are used to make interior wall panels and floor boards in marine, structural, and industrial applications. Compared to aluminum honeycomb cores, they're lightweight and more flexible, so you'll often find them lining boats and high-speed cars. However, they’re not as strong as aluminum cores. Aramid cores also resist flames, self-extinguish without melting or dripping, and are thermal and electrical insulators. Aramid is commonly known as Nomex.
