GRAPHLITE CARBON FIBER ROD

GRAPHLITE CARBON FIBER ROD Discount: Less 15% on 10 or more rolls (per P/N) Prepreg tape has an inherent waviness which can reduce the strength and stiffness of a laminate. Graphlite rod eliminates fiber waviness and unlike tape, it can be placed along any curved surface and retain fiber alignment. Graphlite can be used in layers to form building blocks for stiffeners, spar caps, longerons and other axially loaded parts. Components made with Graphlite offer tension strength on the lower wing surface and compression strength on the upper surface that are almost equal. In addition, a single layer of rods is as thick as 10 layers of tape, meaning fewer passes and less effort. Graphlite rods increase compression strength, reduce fabrication costs by 50%, can be laid on compound curves, and require no special storage. Available in two rod types: standard module (SM) which is 33-34 MSI and intermediate module which is 42 msi. Sold in 12 foot rolls. Typical light aircraft requires minimum of 1000 ft.
