Woven Carbon Fiber Fabric

The original and most recognized form of carbon fiber reinforcement — offering balanced properties in a stable, drapable textile.
1×1 Plain
2×2 Twill
4HS Satin

Woven Carbon Fiber Fabric represents the most recognizable and versatile form of carbon fiber reinforcement. Constructed by interlacing warp and weft tows in a repeating pattern, woven fabric provides balanced in-plane properties with excellent dimensional stability. The interlace structure locks fibers in place, preventing distortion during handling and layup. Available in multiple weave styles — plain, twill, and satin — each offering distinct handling characteristics and surface aesthetics. Tow sizes range from 1k to 24k with areal weights from 60 to 1200 g/m². This fabric is compatible with all resin systems and processing methods, making it the universal choice for composite manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Woven fabric has fibers in both 0° and 90° directions providing balanced properties. UD fabric has fibers in a single direction for maximum stiffness in one axis. Choose woven for multi-directional loads and UD for uniaxial loads.

Plain for maximum stability and flat panels. Twill for a premium cosmetic finish and good drape. Satin for complex contours and the smoothest surface finish. Consider your part geometry and surface finish requirements.

Yes. Woven fabric is well-suited for vacuum infusion. The open weave structure allows good resin flow. Use flow media as needed for large panels. Recommended resin viscosity: 80–300 cP.

With vacuum bagging: 50% – 55%. With autoclave or compression molding: 55% – 60%. The weave structure limits maximum Vf compared to UD, but provides better handling and balanced properties.

Store in the original moisture-barrier packaging at 15–28°C and ≤ 60% relative humidity. Shelf life is 18 months from the date of manufacture. Avoid direct sunlight, UV light, and ozone sources.
