carbon fiber vs. fiberglass vs. kevlar


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is carbon fiber or kevlar stronger than fiberglass cloth? It'll be used to strengthen my next box if I ever get a day off. Also would I need a different kind of resin for the carbon fiber or the kevlar?

haha make that box bullet proof! :lol:

I would just stick with fiberglass just for the fact that you can pick up materials for fiberglass anywhere

Just curious because I found a store on ebay that sells carbon fiber and kevlar for reasonable prices. Can never have a box that's too strong.

I have no idea. If I have to put it in a vacuum then forget it lol. I just don't mind spending a little more to make my box as strong as possible. Anybody know for sure about the vacuum thing?

to make carbon fiber parts you have to have it in a vacuum AND heat it at the same time. as for using it instead of fiberglass I don't see why you couldn't, you would need to squeegy the resin through it I would think since it's less porous than fiberglass.

whats the website, maybe I'll get some and try it on my next enclosure :)

I would like to find out for sure before I do it. I've tried researching it but no luck...

you "can" just use carbon fiber and clear resin/hardener

in a like "throw it in the corner for reinforcement" application, you're better off doing 2 or 3 layers of regular fiberglass

the parts they make out of cf are put in an autoclave to make the resin set faster and compact the layers together better.

it wouldnt perform appreciably better in an application like yours, if anything it would just be for appearance.
