J Perkins Carbon Fibre Batten/Strip 0.8mm X 1.2mm X 1Mt Key Features:

  • Unrivalled Rigidity-to-Weight Ratio: Engineered for high-performance structural reinforcement where maximum stiffness and minimum weight are critical requirements, such as in aerospace modelling and precision engineering.
  • Precision Pultruded Manufacture: Features unidirectional carbon fibres held in a high-quality resin matrix, ensuring exceptional longitudinal strength and resistance to bending and tension.
  • Extensive Dimensional Selection: Available in an exhaustive range of widths from 1.2mm to a substantial 25.4mm, with thicknesses spanning 0.5mm to 2.0mm for targeted structural bracing.
  • Standardised 1-Metre Lengths: Supplied in professional 1000mm strips, providing a consistent format for long-run wing spars, trailing edge reinforcements, and architectural framework.
  • High-Stiffness Reinforcement: The flat "batten" profile is ideal for laminating onto other materials or inlaying into wooden structures to prevent warping and significantly increase load-bearing capacity.
  • Dimensional Stability: Unlike traditional wood or metal strips, carbon fibre is impervious to moisture and temperature fluctuations, maintaining its exact geometry in demanding environmental conditions.
  • Fabrication Tip: For the most secure bonds, use high-strength epoxy resins or cyanoacrylate (CA). When cutting, use a fine-tooth saw or abrasive wheel and ensure appropriate respiratory and eye protection is worn.
