Twill weave carbon fiber cloth is likely the mostrecognizable carbon fiber weave in the industry. It is used in many cosmeticand decorative applications, but also has great functionality. It has both formability and stability. As the2x2 name implies, each tow will pass over 2 tows then under two tows.
Carbon fiber is preferred as it has the highest tensilestrength of all reinforcing materials. The dry 3K 2x2 Twill Weave Fabric givesthe classic carbon fiber look and conforms to complex parts better than plainweave.
It boasts a combined strength and stiffness-to-weight thatis unmatched in the composites industry. In fact, when looking at strength toweight comparisons, carbon fiber outperforms most traditional buildingmaterials.
Carbon fiber can be found everywhere from auto racing toaerospace. Its unmatched strength and weight, along with its modern cosmetics,have made it a widespread favorite in today's composite industry. Highlydesirable for modern composite parts in the aerospace, auto, marine, andsporting goods industries.
This is a first quality commercial grade 3K carbon fiber fabricand is made in the USA. 3K means each tow/bundle is constructed of 3000filaments. The bundles are woven together to form the fabric, which makes it astrong, yet lightweight material.
When purchasing multiple quantities of the same fabric youwill receive one continuous length of that material. It will be rolled, coveredin plastic, and shipped in a cardboard tube to keep the fabric in its firstquality condition.
