Wooden volumes
ArtLine’s wooden volumes are produced by a German company. Hence the remarkable quality of finish, meaning that they are very hardwearing over time. They are made from 18mm birch plywood, making them more resistant to variations in humidity. The boards are cut out with great precision thanks to a digital 5-plane CNC. They are then assembled, glued, and resin-sandblasted. The resulting grain is the fruit of many tests to ensure good adherence, while not being too hard on the skin.
In the volume market, we frequently see premature damage to screw-holes due to the intensive use of screwguns. This is why all of ArtLine’s volumes are equipped with threaded metal inserts (Insert System), prolonging their service life. To mount them, we recommend using Torx woodscrews with minimum diameter of 5mm, and a length of 70mm.
The majority of our volumes are equipped with T-nuts, regularly spaced screw inserts, to the tune of 25/m². They enable the addition of extra holds, in particular for route setting. Each one is counter-screwed to ensure they are correctly supported throughout their use and to enable their replacement if the thread becomes worn.
