Stiffener Joints

06/03/2010 12:08 AM

We make Kitchen Equipment like Table Tops, storage racks etc., with less than 2 mm thickness Stainless Steel and we were using silicone to join the stiffener in the bottom of table top for sound deadening. I want to know if there is any solution to join stiffener in the bottom of table top with lesser cost than silicone. We can't do welding in stiffener because welding make quality problems.

Ravi.,

One way to go about this is to use SS as a cladding over a wooden substrate such as plywood, chipboard, or OSB (oriented strand board). The wood component provides reasonable stiffness without having to weld together a multitude of metal shapes (ribs).
