How to compare stiffness and Cobb values across data sheets
Start with the board grade and grammage on each sheet. Then check the test conditions before comparing the reported values.
| Metric | What to check |
|---|---|
| Bending stiffness | Test method and revision, machine or cross direction (MD or CD), bending angle and span where applicable, conditioning and reporting unit. |
| Cobb water absorptiveness | Test method and revision, exposure time, side tested (coated face or grey back), and reporting unit. |
| Acceptance | Ask whether the figures are typical values or agreed limits. Request the current technical data sheet for the grade you intend to buy. |
