Tech Spect

This document provides technical specifications and mechanical properties for different types of fibreboard, including high density fibreboard (HDF) and medium density fibreboard (MDF). It lists physical properties such as thickness, density, bending strength, swelling, internal bond, screw holding, and surface absorption. The fibreboards are tested based on various British standards and specifications are provided for a range of thickness from 2mm to 30mm. Tolerances for dimensions, squareness, and edge straightness are also outlined.
