What is Carbon Fiber?
Carbon Fiber is a thin filament made up of carbon atoms organized into a crystalline structure. Because of its very high stiffness and strength it is widely used in the aerospace and automotive industries.
How strong is Carbon Fiber?
Carbon Fiber has a flexural strength of 470 MPa (68 ksi) which is 20% higher than the yield strength of 6061 aluminium. Its tensile strength is 700 MPa (102 ksi), more than twice the ultimate tensile strength of aluminium.
