Description
Description
Toray T800 – 24k 670gsm 2×2 Twill Intermediate‑Modulus Carbon Fiber Fabric
Toray T800 carbon fiber fabric is a high‑performance, intermediate‑modulus woven fabric constructed from 24k carbon fiber tow. With a surface weight of approximately 670 g/m² and a classic 2×2 twill weave, this cloth offers an excellent balance of high strength, stiffness and drapeability — making it a versatile choice for demanding composite applications where both structural integrity and clean cosmetic finish are required.
Key Features
- Fiber type: High‑quality carbon fiber, 24k tow, intermediate modulus
- Weave: 2×2 twill — promotes smooth surface finish and easier conformability to contours
- Weight: ~670 g/m² (heavy‑duty structural fabric)
- Drape & layup: Good drape for complex shapes while maintaining fiber alignment for strength
- Mechanical performance: High tensile strength and modulus — ideal for structural laminates, high‑stress parts, and performance‑critical builds
- Surface finish: Twill weave gives a clean, aesthetic finish often preferred in visible composite parts
- Resin compatibility: Compatible with epoxy, vinyl ester, and other high‑performance resin systems
Typical Applications
Aerospace, automotive, motorsports, and marine structural components
- Load‑bearing structural parts
- Cosmetic exterior parts requiring a high‑quality carbon aesthetic finish
- Any composite laminate where strength, stiffness, and surface appearance matter
Processing & Layup Guidelines
- Suitable for hand lay‑up, vacuum bagging, resin infusion
- Ensure full wet‑out of the carbon fabric to maximize mechanical properties and avoid dry spots.
- Follow recommended cure schedules and resin manufacturer instructions for best results. Use compatible peel‑ply, breather, and release materials if doing vacuum or infusion processing.
- When forming complex or contoured parts, carefully tack and layer cloth to avoid waviness or fiber distortion.
Ordering & Supply
- Sold by: Linear yard
- Standard width: 50"
- Note: Because this is a heavy 670 gsm fabric, handle with care to avoid fraying and ensure clean cuts with a sharp shear or diamond‑edged blade.
