12K Triaxial Braided Carbon Fiber Fabric |
| Use One Layer Instead of Four |
15.7 oz./sq. yd., 52.8" Wide, .021" Thick.
This 0,+/-60° fabric allows for a single layer to provide equal properties in all directions reducing the time and the material required to achieve a balanced laminate. Although interlaminar adhesion is no different than other reinforcements, delaminations are dramatically reduced since all layers share equally in load distribution and move together. The 12K fiber is uniquely flattened to result in a fabric that is as thin as many 6K's.

3K, 2 x 2 Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Fabric |
| The "Look" |
5.7 Oz/Sq Yd, 50" Wide, .012" Thick, 3K, 2x2 Twill Weave
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 formable and slightly stronger than the plain |

3K, Plain Weave Carbon Fiber Fabric |
| Industry Standard |
5.7 Oz/Sq Yd, 50" Wide, .012" Thick, 12.5 x 12.5 Plain Weave
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. |

|
 |
6K, 5HS Weave Carbon Fiber Fabric |
| The Workhorse |
10.9 Oz/Sq Yd., 50" Wide, .017" Thick, 6K, 5HS Weave Construction
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.

1K, Plain Weave Ultralight Carbon Fiber Fabric |
| Extremely Light, Great Looking |
3.5 oz./sq. yd., 42" wide, .009" thick.
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.

Carbon Fiber Veil |
| .2 Oz., 35.5" Wide |
|
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.

Unidirectional Carbon Fabric |
| Highest Single Directional Properties Available |
|
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.

Braided Biaxial Sleeves |
| No Seems, No Winding |
These braided 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.
