Carbon Fiber Fabric UNI Directional 12k 8.85oz/300gsm Hexcel IM2 4"

Description: Intermediate Modulus Hexcel IM2-GP UNI Directional Carbon Fiber Fabric/Cloth 12k 8.85oz/300gsm Intermediate Modulus Hexcel IM2-GP UNI Directional Carbon Fiber Fabric/Cloth 12k 8.85oz/300gsm Fiber type - Fiber type available is a Hexcel IM2 12k Intermediate Modulus Fiber. This yarn is smaller in size than a standard 12k yarn and visually replicates the look of a standard strength 6k carbon fiber yarn while offering over a 60% increase in tensile strength and reducing the weight in almost half. How we sell This fabric is sold by the linear yard. The unit price displayed is for 1 linear yard. Please purchase the number of linear yards that you require. When purchasing multiple yards of the same fabric you will receive one continuous length of that material. We carefully take that material and roll it onto a cardboard core and wrap over with clear plastic or Kraft paper, making sure to keep the fabric in its first quality condition. We pride ourselves as having one of the best material handing crews possible. We have most of our material available for purchase in sample swatch books per fabric category.

This does not account for the resin used in the flow lines and consumables such as flow media or breather cloth. Wet-layup by hand will also have a higher resin consumption in the final part and is dependent upon users techniques. Vacuum bagging a wet layup will improve the resin content. Too much resin will cause a weaker part, NOT stronger. Average rule of thumb is around 45% (+/- a couple percent). To calculate actual resin % in your part a burn test is used. For example you have a part weighing 100 grams, you would burn off the resin which would leave the fiber behind. You should have 55 grams of fiber left when your process is working correctly. Due to the variables in processing it is hard to give an accurate amount of resin needed to purchase for making your part. However you will have waste no matter what method is used. A suggested ratio is about 1-1.5lbs of resin per lb of fabric purchased.
