Description
J Perkins Carbon Fibre Batten/Strip 2.0mmx12.0mm X 1Mt, part number 5518766, is a black carbon fibre strip with a flat batten profile for structural reinforcement and model-making projects. It measures 2mm thick, 12mm wide and 1,000mm long, providing a consistent strip format for applications such as wing spars, trailing-edge reinforcement and framework.
The strip uses unidirectional carbon fibres held in a resin matrix. This construction gives it longitudinal strength, resistance to bending and a high stiffness-to-weight ratio. The flat profile can be laminated onto other materials or inlaid into wooden structures to help reduce warping and increase load-bearing capacity. Carbon fibre also maintains its geometry when exposed to moisture and temperature changes, making it suitable for projects where dimensional stability is important.
For fabrication, the strip can be cut with a fine-tooth saw or abrasive wheel. High-strength epoxy resin or cyanoacrylate adhesive is suggested for bonding. Cutting carbon fibre can produce dust, so appropriate respiratory and eye protection should be used during preparation.

J Perkins Carbon Fibre Batten/Strip 2.0mmx12.0mm 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.
