Carbon Fibre Cloth 300g +/-45 Biaxial 3k is a specialized reinforcement fabric designed for high-performance composite applications. This fabric consists of 3k carbon fiber tows, meaning each tow is made up of 3,000 individual carbon filaments. The biaxial configuration ensures fibers are oriented at +/-45 degrees, providing balanced strength and stiffness in two directions. This alignment is particularly advantageous for structures subject to torsional or multi-directional loads, such as boat hulls, automotive components, and aerospace parts. The 300g per square meter weight strikes a balance between robust mechanical properties and manageable handling during layup.
