This 2x2 twill weave fabric offers the cosmetic appearance so desirable on modern composite parts. But don't just use it for looks, this fabric is highly form-able and slightly stronger than the plain weave.

(Typical full roll length is 100 yards)  

Identical to part# 1069, this prepreg offers the advantages of pre-impregnation of an epoxy resin system. The material can be stored, shipped and handled at room temperatures and is cured using ramp up schedule requiring at most 310°F. Resin content 33.00% - 39.0% 

This plain weave carbon fiber is the most commonly used type for lightweight aerodynamic parts. Only three layers are typically necessary to produce non-structural pieces. It wets out quickly and handles easily.

3K, 12x12, 5.7 oz/sq yd, 50" Wide. This carbon fiber fabric is out of this world. This pattern is open to visual interpretation, but one thing is certain, it is captivating. Oblique circles and squares extend the length of the fabric, creating a texture that looks like diamond plate. Different lighting on this carbon reveals sharp contrast and depth that has never been seen before in a carbon fiber fabric.  

3K, 12x12, 5.7 oz/sq yd, 50" Wide. Laminating this carbon fabric really makes the pattern come alive. This pattern is like an optical illusion. In certain light, a maze of cubes zigzag the length of the fabric. The pattern seems to reach crookedly into the third dimension, fascinating anyone who looks upon it.  

3K, 12x18, 7.3 oz/sq yd, 50" Wide. This hexagon covered pattern is like an intimidating, scaly predator. Each honeycomb is well-defined and would look great in any application. The polygonal shapes lock together to create a harmonious, symmetrical pattern. Lay up a car hood, a dashboard or a table. This incomparable fabric is just what you need to stand out.  

3K, 12x12, 5.7 oz/sq yd, 50" Wide. This pattern captures the sophisticated appeal of a chessboard and the excitement of a checkered flag. This fabric has multiple dimensions. At certain viewing angles, this pattern has a high-contrast chessboard look. At other viewing angles, each square turns into a subtle diamond. Use this carbon fiber to achieve an exceptionally unique part.  

12K, 10x10, 19.2 oz/sq yd, 50" Wide. This brawny, 12K carbon fiber is the champion. Its bold, plain weave construction creates a lustrous, glazed chessboard. Every thick yarn of carbon is like a glossy brushstroke. The high-contrast surface makes for brilliant highlights but also deep, dark shadows. Use this fabric on a car hood, a motorcycle fender, a snowboard or any project that needs something strong and bold.  

With twice the fiber density of the 3K types, this fabric is ideal for structural applications. Also, the 5 HS weave allows it to work even with the most complex shapes. This material builds quickly to form lightweight structures with virtually no flex.

(Typical full roll length is 100 yards)  

This unique carbon fabric is used in the most demanding applications requiring carbon properties and stiffness at a minimum weight. Plain weave construction provides excellent stability and easy handling.   

Graphite veils are frequently used in applications when corrosion resistant barriers are required. The nonwoven construction allows a resin-rich surface that increases chemical stability and reduces the risk of micro-cracks forming in the composite surface. Carbon veils can also be used for grounding a composite structure, minimizing the build-up of static electricity that could prove dangerous when in contact with explosive liquids and gases.

(Typical full roll length is 125 yards)  

This unidirectional is made without the typical hot melt process. Consequently, there is no crimping of the fibers and only minimal binder is used. This results in the highest property unidirectional dry reinforcement available. The 9 oz is used in many marine applications such as boat hulls, as well as hockey sticks and bicycles. The Intermediate Modulus 4.3 oz Uni is used in aerospace and racing applications where maximum single directional properties are critical. 12" wide.

Graphite Tapes are ideal for selective reinforcement of graphite fabrications, sleeve winding, lap joining, and repairs of cracks on graphite surfaces. 

These braided carbon biaxial sleeves have the cosmetically desirable appearance of a 2x2 Twill pattern but as a sleeve, they can be slid over a prepared mandrel or tube to create straight or tapered tubing. The sleeves can be increased from their base diameter up to 30% and decreased up to 70%. This means that a 2" diameter can be used in a single application ranging from 2.6" diameter down to 0.6". Laying up sleeves is predictable, repeatable and suitable for precise manufacture of composite parts. 

Our high strength Carbon Tow is for selectively reinforcing fiberglass or carbon and for fabricating small, high strength, low weight structures. Use to filament wind tubes or add as a dense charge for compression molding.   

These first quality, hybrid fabrics offer 3K Carbon in the warp and 1500 Denier Kevlar®in the fill directions for maximum drapability and drop-dead good looks. Use as a single layer for cosmetics only or back with another layer in the cross direction for a maximum balance of properties. The Kevlar®fibers are dyed with red, blue or yellow dyes for eye-catching color.
