Vibration-damping for laboratory procedures and optical research provide flat, stiff, highly damped surfaces with high natural frequencies. The tables come in sizes up to 6 X 20 ft and in thicknesses up to 36 in. They are Class 100 Clean-room compatible, with Class 10 available as an option. Standard tabletops have a ferromagnetic stainless-steel top skin, a carbon-steel bottom skin, and a proprietary epoxy-bonded honeycomb core featuring the special Spillpruf design, where entire rows of mounting holes are sealed to protect the core from accidental spills and to ease cleanup.
