6.5mm Plywood
6.5mm ply is light enough to handle easily, but stable enough to give a proper result. It works well in supported applications, keeps weight under control and allows for a cleaner finish without overcomplicating the build. This thickness proves to be the smarter choice on more jobs than people expect.
What is 6.5mm ply sheet?
A 6.5mm Plywood is a thin plywood panel made from layers of wood veneer pressed and bonded together. The cross laminated structure keeps the board balanced and less likely to flex or twist.
6.5mm plywood sheets are typically supplied in 2440mm x 1220mm. Surface finish depends on the product. Some boards are supplied as BB/BB lacquered birch plywood, where small knots or repairs are part of the natural look. Others come with phenolic film faced coatings, designed for durability and a more hard wearing surface
These boards are classified as BS EN636 Class 3. This means they can handle interior use and short term exposure during construction. For outdoor use, sealing is still required to protect the board over time.
Formaldehyde levels are typically E1, so they are suitable for indoor projects. Edges are supplied square. Some boards, such as lacquered birch plywood, come with a prefinished surface for a cleaner, ready to use finish. Others, including film faced phenolic plywood, are designed for durability and more demanding applications, often with an anti-slip surface on one side and a smooth film finish on the other. Edges on these boards are typically sealed to help manage moisture exposure.
It is worth knowing that not every plywood 6.5mm panel is structural. Many are designed for general use where the board is supported. If the job involves load or span, support needs to come from the frame, not the sheet itself.
What is 6.5mm ply used for?
In everyday work, 6.5mm plywood is widely used for cabinet backs, drawer bottoms and wardrobe panels, as well as kitchen unit backs and shelving panels. Keeping the build light and manageable makes installation quicker and cleaner.
It is also a common choice for internal linings. Cupboards, storage areas, van interiors and boxed in sections around pipework all benefit from a board that is easy to cut and fit into tight spaces. You get a consistent surface without fighting with thickness where it is not needed.
In furniture and joinery, plywood 6.5mm is used for panels that will be painted, sealed or used as a base layer. It works well for prototypes, fitted desks and internal sections of units where accuracy matters more than strength.
Benefits of 6.5mm ply sheet

FAQ
Where to buy 6.5mm plywood?
You can buy it online from Sheet Materials Wholesale. Stock is ready, prices are clear and delivery works for both site and home. No running around different suppliers.
How much weight can 6.5mm plywood hold?
It depends on support. On its own, not much. Fixed to a frame or used as a backing, it handles light loads well. For anything heavier, you’ll need thicker boards or proper support behind it.
How to cut 6.5mm plywood?
Cut with a sharp, fine-tooth saw and keep the sheet supported. Take your time. Taping the cut line helps reduce chipping.
