I've genuinely never seen it in 18 milly ... was a board mill in Lydney called Factories Directions for years and could buy in bulk from them, but only did the phenolic in 10/11mm .... 'swhy i never used to use it for bottoms - too thin, without a LOT more support structure, which all added weight and cost to making 'em

Don't get the cheap phenolic stuff, Its crap. There is one called buffalo board and it's more expensive but no idea if it's better as I used it for indoor stuff.

Think OSB is better for certain applications. Horses for courses
