Carbon fibers are made from precursors such as polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and rayon. The precursor fibers are chemically treated, heated and stretched, then carbonized, to create high-strength fibers. These fibers, or filaments, are then bundled together in tows which are identified by the number of carbon filaments they contain. Common tow ratings are 3k, 6k, 12k and 15k. The “k” refers to a thousand, so a 3k tow is made of 3,000 carbon filaments. A standard 3k tow is typically .125” wide, so that is a lot of fiber packed into a small space. A 6k tow has 6,000 carbon filaments, a 12k has 12,000 filaments, and so on. This large number of high-strength fibers bundled together is what makes carbon fiber such a strong material.
Plain weave carbon fiber cloth has a one-over one-under pattern, with a checkerboard appearance. In this weave the tows are woven in an over/under pattern. The short space between interlaces give the plain weave a high level of stability. Fabrics stability is the ability for a fabric to maintain its weave angle and fiber orientation.High-strength, low-weight, plain weave 0-90 carbon fiber composite material adds strength without adding weight. Great for repairs and building boats and boat parts.
