Wilsonart TFL Technical Specifications
Wilsonart® Thermally Fused Laminate (TFL) Panels, part of the Wilsonart Coordinated Surfaces program (TFL, HPL, edgeband and cabinet door/molding in matching designs). This is the material fine print for architects and specifiers. Every value comes from Wilsonart's own published documents and is cited beside the value.
How to read this page. The values describe the raw TFL panel as Wilsonart publishes it, not a finished TFL Door cabinet door. For door construction (3/4" thickness, matched edgeband, stile and rail widths, MR-50 option), see specifying TFL cabinet doors. Where Wilsonart does not publish a value, it is marked Not published by manufacturer. Manufacturers revise data sheets, so confirm against the current sheet before final specification.
