Carbon/Kevlar Core Hybrid Sheet ~ 1/16" x 24" x 48"

$436.20
SKU: FDPLKC02T2448

Please Allow 10-15 days before this item ships

Dragonplate Carbon/Kevlar Core sheets combine the stiffness of carbon fiber with the toughness of Kevlar. By creating a sandwich laminate where carbon fiber comprises the outer layers (the skins), these panels exhibit nearly the same stiffness as a solid carbon fiber sheet. The all Kevlar core, however, increases the impact and puncture toughness of the panel when compared to a standard all-carbon fiber laminate.

 

Kevlar Core sheets are currently available standard with a peel ply texture finish on both sides, but can be ordered with our Dragonplate gloss and matte finishes upon request. Additional sizes and thicknesses are also available upon request. If your application not only requires the high stiffness and low weight of carbon fiber, but also the toughness of Kevlar, this product may be the right fit.

 

Lead time for Kevlar Core panels is 10-15 business days.
