Carbon Fiber Rods
Carbon fiber angles are a lightweight, high strength alternative to conventional metal rods and are used in many different industries. Carbon fiber rods are typically manufactured with a process known as pultrusion. In the pultrusion process, carbon fibers are pulled from multiple spools, through and epoxy resin and then through a tooling die. The composite is then allowed the cure, resulting in a constant cross-section rod with high strength-to-weight characteristics. The number of fibers, the weave pattern, and the choice of epoxy all contribute to the overall strength and flexibility of the rod.
