Description
ACP’s High Gloss Twill Carbon Fiber Sheet is an outstanding decorative laminate with a deep, glossy, three dimensional finish. It is constructed with layers unidirectional carbon fiber prepreg layed up in a 0/90 degree orientation with a single layer of 2×2 twill carbon fiber prepreg on each of the outside surfaces. This type of construction produces a decorative laminate that has the classic carbon fiber look but with greater strength and stiffness than to our Unidirectional Carbon Fiber Sheets.
The carbon fiber sheet is semi-flexible, yet remains stiff like cardstock. It can bend in only one direction at a time making it suitable for either flat surfaces or pipes. Once cured, these sheets cannot be re-shaped. Therefore they will not lie flat on compound curves, convex or concave surfaces. One side features our recognized high gloss finish while available options for the opposite side include a high gloss, matte or adhesive backed finish.
Our proprietary Autoclave curing process produces the most consistent and highest quality gloss carbon fiber sheets possible. Manufactured using 100% real carbon fiber fabric pre-impregnated with high quality epoxy resin, these sheets are cured at high temperatures and pressure to ensure a strong, rigid product that cannot be re-shaped after cured. Unlike a wet layup, our Autoclave curing process consistently yields flat, lightweight sheets with minimal voids, waves or buildups.
These 1st quality sheets are manufactured with a clear, resin-rich carbon fiber prepreg which results in a smooth, low porosity laminate with a mirror-like finish. Our special blend of high strength epoxy resin guarantees a durable, stronger, longer lasting finish. The built in UV inhibitor in the 2×2 twill prepreg resists UV rays in outdoor applications. There is no need for fillers, gel coats or surface treatments to enhance the surface appearance of our sheets.
