Foam Cored Carbon Fibre Panel

Hand made in the UK. Premium quality foam cored carbon fibre panel manufactured using 100% high-strength carbon fibre reinforcement sandwiched either side of a low density structural core material. These panels have a smooth, glossy, cosmetic quality carbon fibre finish on one side and a smooth, satin finished carbon fibre finish on the reverse.

These high performance are designed to provide the maximum stiffness for the minimum weight and are ideal for a range of applications including motorsport, marine, shopfitting, exhibitions, automation, medical, scientific and more.

Available in 6mm, 11mm thicknesses in a range of sheet sizes up to 2sqm.

Manufactured using advanced technology, our High Strength Carbon Fibre Foam Core Panel achieves the ultimate combination of strength, light weight and stunning appearance making the panel ideal for a wide range of uses from structural engineering applications through to exhibition systems and architectural use.

This specially developed foam-cored carbon fibre panel is 6mm thick and uses a combination of genuine 2/2 twill 3k carbon fibre combined with a layer of woven E-glass either side of a light-weight 5mm closed-cell PVC foam core create a light-weight panel with excellent deflection strength. For maximum strength-to-weight ratio the sheets are manufactured without any gelcoat or surface coating but our propriety resin technology ensures a glossy, pin-hole free 'class-A' surface.

Resin matrix is epoxy throughout with a high temperature post-cure for maximum mechanical performance.

The panel has a smooth carbon fibre finish on both sides however the reverse side of the sheet is not designed to be a cosmetic face and as such some light scratches or imperfections from pressing, handling and cutting are to be expected.

Typical Uses

Available in sheet sizes up to 1980mm x 980mm sheet is suited to use a huge range of projects:

• Lightweight Structural/Engineering Projects
• Vehicle Panelling / Undertrays
• Universal Carbon Fibre Splitters
• Marine Panelling
• Exhibition Systems / Displays
• Architectural Use

Advantages

The foam core allows us to make a panel of satisfactory thickness to be very stiff for the minimum possible weight. Conventional panels (made without a core material) are significantly heavier for the same deflection strength.
