Our carbon fiber is sturdy, lightweight, and comes in a clean, double-sided matte finish. Engineers and designers across many industries turn to us for durable, affordable waterjet cut carbon fiber parts.
Our sleek 2×2 twill weave, standard carbon fiber is perfect for low weight, high strenght applications. It is popular in the aerospace and automotive sector due to its amazing strength-to-weight ratio. We choose to offer standard 2×2 carbon fiber for the marriage of tensile strength and rigidity which other weaves can’t provide. The 2×2 twill weave carbon fiber is also considerably stronger than steel, while also being a fraction of the weight.
Carbon fiber is a popular composite in industries where safety is a top priority due to its high rigidity and ability to absorb impact energy. Here at SendCutSend, our carbon fiber cutting services can provide truck dashboards, airplane switch panels, and combat robotics protective paneling made to your specifications.
Our carbon fiber has the same matte finish on the front and back sides.
