How does end-grain balsa differ from flat-grain balsa core?

End-grain balsa core has the wood grain oriented perpendicular to the panel surface, providing superior compressive and shear strength. This configuration is ideal for load-bearing sandwich structures. Flat-grain balsa, with grain running parallel to the surface, offers lower strength but may be used for non-structural or decorative applications. End-grain balsa is the preferred choice for marine, wind energy, and high-performance composite panels.
