Medium weight 416g carbon fibre cloth ideal for use as a backing layer when making larger carbon fibre parts or when building up a thicker laminate. Using a 12k 416g carbon fibre cloth like this for backing layers will reduce lamination time and the material cost considerably. A single layer of 416g cloth will add the strength and thickness to a laminate equivalent to 2 layers of 3k 210g cloth.

Typical Uses

Use in conjunction with a 3k 210g surface layer then 1 or more layers of 12k 416g cloth to produce larger parts or thicker laminates. Also commonly used as the reinforcement/bulking layers for carbon fibre moulds.

In some circumstances this 12k 416g cloth can even be used as the surface layer on cosmetic parts where a larger weave pattern is desirable although care will need to be taken to ensure that the greater texture of this heavy weight carbon fibre cloth does not 'print through' making the surface of the part uneven.
