CARBON FIBER FABRIC 285 G/M2 2/2 TWILL 1,25M HEXFORCE 43285 3K
Carbon fiber is an extremely strong and lightweight material made from thin, carbon-rich fibers. It is typically produced using polyacrylonitrile (PAN) fiber, which is heated in an oxygen-free environment at high temperatures, leaving behind almost pure carbon. This process results in fibers with a carbon content of 95 – 99%.

Carbon fibers are suitable for reinforcing both thermoset and thermoplastic materials. They are primarily used as reinforcement when the product being manufactured requires high strength, stiffness, and light weight. Carbon fiber is a versatile material that combines lightness, strength, and durability, making it ideal for demanding technical applications.
Carbon fiber is widely used across various industries. In the aerospace sector, it is utilized in the structures of aircraft and satellites due to its light weight and durability. In the automotive industry — especially in sports and racing cars — carbon fiber is used in component manufacturing to reduce weight and enhance performance. In sports equipment such as bicycles, tennis rackets, and skis, carbon fiber offers both lightness and strength. In boat building, it is used to create lightweight yet durable structures.
Carbon fiber is rarely used on its own. It is normally woven into fabric or tape and combined with a resin, such as epoxy resin. This creates a composite structure.
