Specialized Materials, Simplified Sourcing

Integrate Specialized Flexible Panels with a Single Source Material Partner

Sourcing unique, specialized materials like flexible plywood from secondary vendors introduces complexity and risk to project timelines. McFadden's simplifies this by operating as your one-stop-shop, supplying Wiggle Wood alongside your standard panel and finishing materials. This integrated approach ensures material compatibility, streamlines your ordering process, and guarantees that every component needed for complex, curved fabrication is ready for your team.

Fabrication Efficiency

Accelerate Curved Design with Easy-to-Shape Flexible Plywood

The primary practical advantage of Wiggle Wood is the sheer speed and ease with which it can be formed into curves, cylinders, and serpentine shapes. This material drastically reduces the labor associated with traditional steam bending or kerf-cutting, allowing fabricators to quickly create flawless curved surfaces for counter fronts, custom shelving, or furniture components, significantly improving the efficiency of specialized project execution.

Practical Inquiries on Wiggle Wood Supply

Professionals using flexible plywood require specific details on bending characteristics, sizing, and finishing compatibility. Here are the answers to the most frequent questions regarding our Wiggle Wood inventory.

Yes, to maximize design flexibility, we stock Wiggle Wood in both bend directions. Short grain panels bend along the 4-foot dimension, ideal for column wraps, while long grain panels bend along the 8-foot dimension, perfect for long serpentine counters.

Wiggle Wood is designed to be veneered or laminated after the curve is formed. We recommend using high-quality contact adhesive or specialized veneer glue, applied while the panel is clamped or secured to the final curved form, ensuring a durable and smooth finished surface.

We maintain inventory of the most common flexible plywood thicknesses, typically 3/8-inch (9mm) or 5/8-inch (16mm), which provide the ideal balance between flexibility for bending and the structural integrity required for cabinet and furniture construction.

When installing edge banding on a curved Wiggle Wood panel, flexible edge trim (such as PVC or thin wood veneer) is required. The use of a specialized flexible adhesive and a careful, steady application process is essential to ensure the banding conforms neatly to the curve and maintains a strong bond.

Wiggle Wood is highly flexible and excels in forming curved skins or non-structural faces. For curved components requiring load-bearing strength, it is essential to laminate multiple layers of Wiggle Wood together or use it in conjunction with a solid framing structure to achieve the necessary rigidity and support.
