Hi-Abuse®
XP® Gypsum Board
Technical Information
The primary function of abuse resistant panels is to provide increased resistance to surface damage over standard gypsum board. The following technical data illustrates the increased performance of Hi-Abuse XP Gypsum Board. If resistance to impact by hard objects is desired, Hi-Impact XP Gypsum Board is recommended.

Procedure Summary -A sample is laid flat and subjected to 50 abrasion cycles of a wire brush with an additional 25 lb. weight. The depth of abrasion in three consecutive samples is measured and reported as a mean depth of abrasion in inches. This test measures the ability of a panel to withstand surface scuffs and abrasions.
Procedure Summary -A sample is laid flat and impacted by a 5/8" hemispherical rod raised to height that provides 72 in.-lbs. of impact energy. The depth of the indentation is measured from three board samples and reported as a mean depth of indentation in inches. This test measures the ability of a panel to resist dents.
