Dear List Members,
We have been using tri-laminate routinely as our TT insert material. For the most part, this works really well, but every so often it seems that we get a sheet that tends to delaminate. This generally doesn't occur until the insert has been worn for about a year. It is hard to be sure that the problem is with the same sheet, but it seems to occur with inserts that are being fabricated around the same time. Has anyone else had this problem? What manufacturers seem to be providing a consistently reliable product? Thanks!
