Description
The material is often referred to as silver carbon fiber although it is not actual carbon fiber, as all carbon fiber is black. This fabric is nearly identical to Hexcel Texalium however due to the U.S. plant shutdown we have this material manufactured elsewhere to keep costs reasonable while allowing us to coat nearly any fabric style with this coating. This fabric has a width of 50″, the yarn used is comparable in size and appearance to a carbon fiber tow size of 3k and is woven in a 2×2 twill weave. This is the most widely used weave pattern across multiple industries.
Note: This material is a 2nd Quality material. It does contain flaws in the fabric. There are random ‘nicks’ in the material so this fabric is not suited for making larger parts. The flaws are random enough that smaller parts can be made from the material.
Please note that any order over 5 yards may be sent in multiple pieces.
To harden the raw fabric into a usable form, you will need the appropriate resin or epoxy for your project. For the colored materials, we suggest one of our resins which cure clear.
