They are constructed with upper and lower skins of clad aluminum alloy and with a nonperforated aluminum alloy honeycomb core. A continuous phenolic rub strip is bonded to the lower surface at the trailing edge. Dacron covered silicone rubber seals are installed at each end and at the forward edge. The seals at each end are adjustable.
