Carbon Fibre / Kevlar Hybrid fabric, 200gsm, plain weave weave.
This roll is 1m (39") wide. The price is per linear metre - please purchase the number of linear metres you require.
When purchasing multiple metres the fabric will be supplied in one continuous length on a roll.
Uses and Suitability
This fabric combines the properties of 2 unique reinforcement yarns. Carbon provides high levels of stiffness and strength, whereas Kevlar provides huge impact/abrasion/fracture resistance. This distinct looking hybrid cloth is used in many high-performance, high-impact applications such as canoes, military ballistics and rally-car paneling.
Carbon/Kevlar fabric can be used in just the same way as standard carbon fibre. It is suitable for use in wet-lay, vacuum bagging and resin infusion manufacture as well as for use as a single surface layer where parts are being made to look like carbon/kevlar (skinning).
When using only carbon/kevlar reinforcement in a part you should expect to use several layers of this fabric in each part. None-structural components like body panels and covers will typically require 3-6 layers of a carbon fibre cloth of this weight.

All fabric orders for carbon fibre will be shipped carefully wrapped around a tube and boxed to ensure that the fabric arrives in perfect condition. For small quantities of carbon fabric to international destinations this does mean that shipping is a little more expensive but you are assured that the fabric will arrive without any creases or folds.
