Neatflex PIP
Product
Characteristics
Bending Capabilities
The typical minimum bending radius obtainable using Neatflex
is 300 mm (12"). If a tighter radius is required it is
best to use Neatform Bendy MDF which has a minimum bending
radius of 150mm (6"). Bending capabilities of Neatform
and Neatflex may vary with the moisture content and temperature
and, because it is manufactured from natural raw materials,
it may vary slightly from one batch to another.

Conditioning
Neatflex should be acclimatised the same as the surfacing
material, adhesives, paints or lacquers to be used. If available,
refer to the fabrication guidelines for the surfacing material,
adhesives, paints or lacquer.

Cold Conditions
The bending characteristics of Neatflex and other materials
such as laminate vary with temperature. Care must be taken,
especially in cool conditions, that the materials do not become
too brittle to work with.
Handling
Care should be taken when handling Neatflex. The size, weight
and flexibility of a full sheet will generally require two
people to ensure that the material is not over-flexed or broken.
Storage
Neatflex should be stored flat in such a way that both surfaces
are protected. Store in a dry area and avoid direct contact
with the floor.
Health and Safety
When working with any timber based product including MDF it
is important to take health and safety seriously. Protective
goggles and a dust mask are essential. MDF must be cut in
a well-ventilated area and all machining tools should be fitted
with dust collection systems.
