Vectorply Introduces the Lightest Weight Carbon Fabric

August 18, 2011 - United States Of America

Vectorply is extremely excited to introduce the lightest weight double bias carbon fabric to the market. The C-BX 0300 (100 gsm) is our newest product in the VectorUltra line of reinforcements.

“For the first time, we now have a product that is lightweight and offers better mechanical properties than traditional 1K woven carbon fabrics,” says Trey Sawtelle, Co-President of Vectorply Corporation. “There are many composite markets such as aerospace, automotive, defense, and sporting equipment that can benefit from this new lightweight multiaxial fabric development.”

The breakthrough in the ability to spread carbon fiber tow into very thin layers provides a high performance reinforcement fabric at a lower cost, compared to a 1K carbon woven fabric of comparable weight.
