2mm Thick 3k Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Plate For Automation

Product Description

3k Plain Weave / 3k Twill WeaveLarge Carbon Fiber Sheets, Big Size Carbon Fiber Panels

Manufactured using resin infusion to achieve a near-perfect, porous free veneer. Finally, get the carbon fiber look you have been itching for, everywhere! This carbon fiber sheet is made with real carbon fiber and is ideal for applications where cosmetic requirements outweigh structurally. This plate is easily trimmed with scissors (by hand!) allowing its use in a huge variety of applications such as clearing electronics in a dashboard or door sills in your McLaren. Oh, wait, carbon fiber is already there!

Suitable for a huge range of structural and cosmetic applications within motorsport, marine, shopfitting, exhibitions, automation, medical, scientific, and many more.

Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Plate Specification    

Carbon fibre sheet manufactured using 100% high strength carbon fibre reinforcement cured under pressure and temperature to produce a high-performance sheet suitable for fully structural applications whilst also having a class-A (cosmetic) finish on one side.

The visible surface of the sheet uses a ‘visual quality’ 2/2 twill, 3k woven carbon fibre fabric and has a high-gloss finish. The reverse side of the sheet is finished with a flat but textured ‘peel-ply’ finish suitable for secondary bonding.

Our High Strength Carbon Fibre Sheets are manufactured in-house by SHANGHAI LIJIN using a strictly controlled process to produce the highest standard of carbon fibre sheets available.

Immediately after curing and before cutting or stocking the sheets are coated in a high-quality protective film on their cosmetic side to ensure they remain in pristine condition.

Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Plate Typical Uses

• Motorsport / Marine / Light Aircraft

• Cabinets / Enclosures / High-End Audio
• Further Processing into Sandwich Panels

Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Plate Advantages

• 100% high strength carbon fibre reinforcement throughout
• Pin-hole free high-gloss cosmetic surface
• Flat, textured bonding surface on the reverse
• Wide range of thicknesses and sheet sizes available

Quasi-Isotropic Layup

To create a more uniform distribution of strength, all our sheets are manufactured using both layers of 0°/90° and 45°/-45° oriented reinforcement in what is known as quasi-isotropic fibre orientation. Carbon fibre sheets using this layup technique offer improved stiffness across their diagonal axis and significantly improved torsional stiffness.

Laminate Composition

The matrix used is a high-performance epoxy resin that offers excellent mechanicals, clarity, and improved UV stability. The high-temperature cure maximizes the mechanical strength properties and results in a Tg (glass transition) of 80°C.

To achieve maximum stability and flatness in the sheets, we used 'balanced' laminates for all sheet thicknesses. This means that the fibre type, weight, and weave are symmetrical from the front to the back ply.
