Flake
Flat, irregularly shaped pieces of material. A maximum flake size is indicated, but individual flakes may vary greatly in size.
Tolerances: Dimensions shown are nominal
Foam
A low density, permeable structure of cells and continuous ligaments offering a high surface area to volume ratio, and also a high strength to weight ratio. Owing to the nature of this material, dimensions are nominal.
Foil
Thin sheets of pure metal and metal alloys. Due to their fragile nature, some foils are coated on one side with an acrylic or polyester support. Where foils are supported they are indicated in the detailed item description.
Light Tight Foil: LT Foils are supplied without visible pinholes whereas NLT foils will normally contain pinholes, but may occasionally be free from pinholes. Foils 0.025mm or more in thickness are supplied LT unless otherwise stated. Foils less than 0.025mm are normally supplied NLT, however, if you require LT foils, please ask. An additional charge may be made if we are able to supply LT foils.

Tolerances: Dimensions shown are nominal
Mesh
Mesh is available as either a woven wire or electroformed product; in all cases, the quoted aperture sizes are nominal. Wire mesh: a material which is woven from metal wires to provide a thin grid with a regular series of holes. Electroformed mesh: a product made by electroplating the mesh geometry through a mask onto a substrate which is subsequently etched away.

| Tolerances | |
| Thickness: | ±30% |
| Size: | ±20% |
Microleaf
An extremely thin sheet of metal mounted on a removable support. Microleaf is not available for metals which are too brittle to be free standing. Microleaf is mounted on a specially treated support which allows separation of the metal film from the support. Full instructions on the method of removal are issued with each Microleaf supplied.

Monofilament
A single strand of a non-metallic material.
| Tolerances | |

| Length: | +5%/-1% |
Non-Woven Fabric
Non-woven fabrics are made by methods other than weaving or knitting, the yarns and fibres being held together, often quite loosely, by means other than geometric interlacing. Due to the open and porous nature of this material, all other dimensions are nominal.
| Tolerances | ||||
| Size (linear dimension): | <100mm | ±5mm | >100mm | ±5% |
Nut
Generally a flat piece of material with a threaded hole which can be screwed onto a bolt to fasten items together. Nuts typically have a hexagonal external shape. Nuts are available in metric and inch-threaded sizes.
| Tolerances | |

Powder
Small particles with an approximately defined size range. Those materials described as alloy precursors are not true alloys - they are made by sintering a blend of powders of the component metals to achieve alloying by diffusion. The resultant cake is ground and sieved to the required particle size range. Unless otherwise stated, the particle sizes shown are for guidance only. We do not guarantee either any particular size distribution between the quoted minimum and maximum sizes, or a specific particle shape.
