Define the component
A coil photograph is not enough. The buyer must see the installed position and specification.
Exploded view
Packaging-system interfaces
The exploded view explains how the hardboard component integrates with the other protective layers.
Material role
Drawing-controlled hardboard components within a complete coil pack.
Component type, installed position and dimensions are confirmed from the approved customer drawing. Sample approval and a packaging trial are required for a new coil configuration.
Component options
Side rings, inner or outer edge protectors and rectangular spacers are available by drawing review.
Dimensional fit
OD, ID, length, width, thickness and tolerance follow the approved drawing revision.
Material baseline
Wet-process hardboard is available in 1.6–6.0 mm with density of 900–1,100 kg/m³.
Packing integration
The hardboard part is qualified within the customer’s full wrapping, cover, skid and strapping system.

Common buying questions
Information to confirm before quotation.
Does AAF supply the complete coil packaging system?
No. AAF supplies hardboard sheets and cut components; wrapping, covers, skids, strapping and complete pack design remain under the customer or packaging designer specification.
Is a component drawing required?
A controlled drawing or complete dimensional requirement is needed to review the component type, installed position, tolerances and production capability.
Can components be reviewed for steel and aluminium coils?
Selected steel, aluminium and coated-product configurations can be reviewed against the customer drawing, contact requirements and packaging trial plan.
