Applications

This fabric combines the properties of 2 unique reinforcement materials. Carbon provides high levels of stiffness and strength, whereas Kevlar provides huge impact/abrasion/fracture resistance. This distinct looking hybrid cloth is used in many high-performance, high-impact applications such as aerospace and military ballistics, canoes and rally-car panelling, as well as in the manufacture & repair of more everyday sporting equipment such as fishing rods, bicycles, etc.

Carbon/Kevlar fabric can be used in just the same way as standard carbon fibre. It is suitable for use in wet-lay, vacuum bagging and resin infusion manufacture as well as for use as a single surface layer where parts are being made to look like carbon/kevlar (skinning).

Plain weave might be selected over 2:2 twill for cosmetic reasons (matching fabric already used on a vehicle for example) or because its tighter weave makes it easier to handle without distorting it. If you need the fabric to 'drape' very easily into and over curved shapes then you might want to consider 2:2 twill instead which is better suited to such shapes.

A4 size is ideal for smaller projects, when quantities sold by the linear metre are surplus to requirements.
