Frequently Asked Questions

Product Information

What Kevlar composite products does DragonPlate offer?

DragonPlate offers a range of Kevlar composite products, including hybrid carbon/Kevlar plates, Kevlar core plates, Kevlar sheets, and a variety of Kevlar and carbon/Kevlar tubes. These products are available as standard off-the-shelf items and can be customized for specific applications. Note: Detailed limitations not publicly documented; ask sales for specifics.

What are the benefits of using Kevlar composites from DragonPlate?

Kevlar composites from DragonPlate provide a high degree of toughness and resistance to impact. Kevlar is non-conductive, making it suitable for applications where carbon fiber may cause electromagnetic interference, such as radomes and UAV components. While Kevlar is not as stiff as carbon fiber, it can be designed to be stronger than pure carbon fiber or fiberglass in certain applications. Note: Kevlar composites may not be ideal for applications requiring maximum stiffness; carbon fiber may be preferable in those cases.

What types of Kevlar tubes and sheets are available?

DragonPlate offers braided Kevlar round tubes in multiple inner diameters and lengths, as well as Kevlar sheets and hybrid carbon/Kevlar plates. For example, braided Kevlar round tubes are available in sizes such as 0.5" ID x 24" ($70.81), 0.625" ID x 48" ($116.79), and 0.75" ID x 96" ($233.36). Note: Not all sizes or configurations may be available; check product listings for current inventory.

Pricing & Ordering

What are the prices for DragonPlate Kevlar tubes?

Prices for DragonPlate Kevlar tubes vary by size and length. For example, a braided Kevlar round tube 0.5" ID x 24" is $70.81, 0.5" ID x 48" is $143.70, and 0.75" ID x 96" is $233.36. All prices are quoted in US Dollars and do not include shipping, taxes, or handling charges. Note: Prices are subject to change without notice; check the website for current pricing.

How is pricing determined for custom Kevlar composite products?

Pricing for custom Kevlar composite products is based on the complexity, size, and scope of the project. Additional charges may apply for CNC cutting, tailored laminate schedules, or other customization options. Bulk discounts may be available for larger orders. Note: Custom pricing is not listed online; contact DragonPlate for a quote.

What payment terms and options are available?

Payment is typically prepaid via credit card, check, or wire transfer. For approved buyers, maximum payment terms are Net 30, and a 1.5% per month service charge may apply to unpaid balances. Note: Payment terms may vary for custom orders; see the Terms and Conditions for details.

Features & Capabilities

How do Kevlar composites compare to carbon fiber and fiberglass?

Kevlar composites are less stiff than carbon fiber but offer greater toughness and impact resistance. Kevlar is non-conductive, making it preferable in applications where electromagnetic interference is a concern. In certain designs, Kevlar or carbon/Kevlar parts can be stronger than those made solely from carbon fiber or fiberglass. Note: Kevlar may not be suitable for applications requiring maximum rigidity; carbon fiber is better for those cases.

What customization options are available for Kevlar composite products?

DragonPlate works with commercial and military customers to develop customized Kevlar solutions, including flat panels, flame retardant tubes, I-Beams, and fully custom-molded contours. Customization can include CNC cutting, tailored laminate schedules, and specific ply orientations. Note: Customization may increase lead times and costs; contact DragonPlate for details.

Use Cases & Applications

What industries use DragonPlate Kevlar composite products?

DragonPlate Kevlar composites are used in aerospace, defense, UAVs, radomes, and EMI-sensitive environments. The non-conductive properties of Kevlar make it suitable for replacing fiberglass parts where carbon fiber may cause interference. Note: Not all industries may benefit equally; consult DragonPlate for application-specific guidance.

What are some typical applications for Kevlar composites?

Kevlar composites are commonly used in radomes, UAV components, impact-resistant panels, and environments where electromagnetic interference must be minimized. Custom-molded contours and flame retardant tubes are available for specialized needs. Note: Kevlar composites may not be ideal for applications requiring high stiffness or thermal resistance; consider alternatives for those cases.

Technical Requirements & Documentation

Where can I find technical specifications and CAD models for Kevlar composite products?

Technical specifications and downloadable CAD models for DragonPlate Kevlar composite products are available on the website. Visit Weights and Specs and CAD Models for detailed information. Note: Not all products may have CAD models; check listings for availability.

Is DragonPlate ISO 9001:2015 certified?

Yes, DragonPlate operates an ISO 9001:2015-certified facility, ensuring high-quality manufacturing standards and consistent product reliability. Note: Certification applies to manufacturing processes; individual product certifications may vary.

Kevlar Composite Products

kevlar composite productsDragonplate has many standard off-the-shelf Kevlar products including hybrid carbon/Kevlar plates, Kevlar core plates, and a variety of Kevlar and carbon/Kevlar tubes. The benefits of Kevlar are well known, namely a high degree of toughness and resistance to impact. Although not as stiff as carbon fiber, a Kevlar or carbon/Kevlar part can be designed to be much stronger than one solely comprising carbon fiber or fiberglass in certain applications. Additionally, since Kevlar is non-conductive, it is often used as a replacement for fiberglass parts in applications where carbon may cause electromagnetic interference issues, for example in radomes and UAV components.

Dragonplate works with a wide array of both commercial and military customers to develop customized carbon fiber Kevlar solutions ranging from flat panels to flame retardant tubes and I-Beams to fully custom-molded contours.
