Carbon Fiber Fabric Strips
Use these strips, made of a heat-stabilized carbon fiber blend, for high-temperature seals and heat insulation.

Fire-Retardant Carbon Fiber Sheets
Even when exposed for as long as 2 minutes to temperatures up to 2600° F, these sheets, made of a carbon fiber blend, won't ignite or melt. They also resist molten metal spatter.

Create-Your-Own Composites
Mold custom-shaped composite parts by layering your choice of fabric with an epoxy. The epoxy (sold separately) is a two-part resin that begins to harden in 15 hours and reaches full strength in 4 days. Finished composite pieces have a temperature range of 0° to 250° F.
Fabric with a twill weave provides equal strength in all directions.
Fabric with a unidirectional weave has most of its fibers running in one direction. This weave is preferred when making tubular parts, such as vehicle frames, where linear strength is required.
Kevlar fabric is a super-tough material that offers excellent wear and abrasion resistance.
Carbon fiber fabric provides the highest strength of all our composite fabrics.
Carbon/Kevlar fabric results in rigid composite parts that have the strength of carbon fiber with the wear resistance of Kevlar.

High-Strength Expandable Sleeving
With excellent torsional strength, this sleeving withstands the extreme twisting found in robotics. Made of carbon fiber, it has impact strength similar to steel yet is lighter than plastic and rubber. Resistant to corrosion and chemicals, it’s often used to protect brake lines and hydraulic lines. It’s expandable, so it stretches to fit over items for easy installation, then tightens around its contents for a secure fit. The braided construction permits heat and moisture to dissipate. Cut with scissors or a hot-blade knife.
Ultra Heat- and Flame-Resistant Tarps
The most heat-resistant tarps we offer, these resist flames and molten metal splatter.
