JimboS1ice Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 Assuming it's a type of flooring?JimboSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 It came with some aluminum van shelves from Canada. I tried to contact the manufacturer and they wouldn't tell me anything about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarynH Posted December 8, 2015 Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 I don't know what it's called but they use this in certain contractor vans. For instance I know the dodge pro masters have this in the upgraded flooring. It's pretty nice stuff from what I've experienced.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyMcGrath Posted December 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2015 http://www.wisaplywood.com/Products/product-catalogue/wisa-hexa-grip/Pages/Default.aspxAwesome! Thanks! Looks like they have a distributor in Dallas. Gonna have to see if I can find one in Houston. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 I knew that comp would be the guy to ask, not surprised to see him nonchalantly come to the rescue, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Argyropoulos Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Those look like Ranger shelves. Mine came with a typical black laminate plywood that's held up very well. That laminate looks like it'll do the job nicely, too. Ranger stuff kicks serious ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Glassey Posted December 9, 2015 Report Share Posted December 9, 2015 Saw this, hope it helps? http://dayouplywood72.en.hisupplier.com/product-735883-black-film-faced-plywood-Brown-film-faced-plywood.html It's an anti-slip surface plywood for outdoor use.

Mr. Yellow Posted December 12, 2015 Report Share Posted December 12, 2015 Matt is right. I used the exact same stuff for the flooring and shelves in my van and for the worktable. It's from Wisa indeed 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted December 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 Thanks. I recall you saying Shuttering plywood and nobody around here knew what the heck I was talking about. When the racks showed up at the shop, I had to start looking again as someone must have it in the US because the Ranger shelves came with it. I'm still struggling to find any supplier in the US though. [emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35][emoji35] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Yellow Posted December 13, 2015 Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 True. That was because I didn't had a clue how they call this kind of ply in the US/UK [emoji16]So I looked it up and shuttering ply came up as a term. Buffalo ply is another term, like Matt said.

RickyMcGrath Posted December 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 I found a place in Houston that supposedly specializes in Marine plywoods. So I'm hoping they have some sort of Phenolic plywood such as the Wisa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted December 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 I have officially exhausted all efforts and resources to find this wood in the Texas. [emoji25] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Yellow Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 Did you try the distributor and asked for local dealer?If you have a willing dealer he could possibly order it in for you...Sent from somewhere by someone using something.

RickyMcGrath Posted December 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2015 Did you try the distributor and asked for local dealer?If you have a willing dealer he could possibly order it in for you...Sent from somewhere by someone using something.Yes. I even contact manufacturers to see if they knew of anyone in Texas that has ordered it or may stock it. I thought I found someone but after I told him I wanted 10-15 sheets, he stopped responding to me. Guess it wasn't a big enough order for him to mess with. I also had someone that apparently didn't understand my original inquiry, when I got down to getting ready to order, the quote had black melamine on it which is quite different.
