Description
Carbon Fiber Fabric – 2x2 Twill Triaxial 0/+60/−60, 12k, 48"/121.92 cm, 15.6 oz / 529 gsm – Toray T700
Build quasi-isotropic laminates in a single ply. This triaxial carbon fabric combines three directions of reinforcement—0°, +60°, and −60°—in one balanced, 2x2 twill construction. Woven with Toray T700 12k aerospace-grade fiber (≈71 ksi), it delivers high strength, excellent drape, and an attractive twill appearance while cutting lay-up time and ply count compared to stacking individual unis or biaxials.
Why this fabric
- Quasi-isotropic in-plane performance: 0/+60/−60 architecture spreads loads efficiently in three directions.
- Fewer plies, faster lay-ups: Achieve the fiber orientations you need in one fabric, reducing seams and print-through.
- 2x2 twill face: Excellent drape over tight radii with a premium cosmetic weave.
- Aerospace fiber pedigree: Toray T700 12k provides consistent mechanical properties and processing.
- Stable, clean handling: Triax/twill construction resists distortion for accurate part geometry.
Typical applications
- Motorsports panels, tubs, splitters, undertrays
- UAV/Drone airframes, prosthetics, robotics, and aerospace interiors
- Marine foils, paddles, boards, and performance sporting goods
- Automotive body panels, interior trim, carbon skins, and tooling faces
