Sorry but I do not currently process prepregs. All parts are wet layup or vacuum bagged. I use PAN based fibers which are not suitable for high temperature or thermal insulation applications.

Common plate sizes are 4 layers of carbon (.050" thick) and 4 layers of carbon sandwiching Coremat (.130" thick). For thin decorative sheets see the veneers page.

For flat plates you can fill out the RFQ form at the bottom of the page. For angles, bends, tubes and other shapes please email me.

If you are unsure of what you need just tell me the application and I can recommend a design.
