4' x 8' Carbon Fiber Sheets!

4x8 Carbon Fiber SheetLARGEST CARBON FIBER SHEETS!
We have had many requests for larger carbon fiber sheets by our customers. The DragonPlate manufacturing team is proud to announce that 4 foot by 8 foot carbon fiber sheets are now available. Offered in 4' x 8' veneer and 4' x 8' .025" laminate, these carbon fiber sheets are the largest you can buy anywhere!

Carbon Fiber Truss Structures

Carbon Fiber Truss StructuresBUILD A TRUSS!
Using DragonPlate 1" carbon fiber square tubes and gussets, we built a carbon fiber truss that is very light and incredibly strong. Now you can build light-weight carbon fiber structures only limited by your imagination. See how strong the truss is...

Carbon Fiber Square & Rectangular Tubing

Carbon Fiber Square TubesNEW PRODUCT!
The wait is finally over for our carbon fiber square and rectangular tubing! This versatile tubing is comprised of Carbon Fiber Braid and Unidirectional Fabrics, ideal for building light weight frames and structures. Our Carbon Fiber large tubing has been engineered to be much stronger under torsional and side loading than pultruded tubing. Our carbon fiber tubing is also significantly lighter than pultruded tubing. Our carbon fiber large tube as been designed so that the unidirectional layers are captured in a sandwich structure, eliminating longitudinal cracking and splitting. The finish on this product is different from our other product lines. These tubes show the texture of the carbon fiber braid with a wet shiny appearance.

Carbon Fiber Gussets for Tubing

Carbon Fiber GussetsNEW PRODUCT!
Now you can build super strong carbon fiber structures with our new gussets for our carbon fiber square tubes!

Carbon Fiber Gusset StructureGussets are widely used to reinforce tube structures but are commonly made from heavy materials. Our new gusset kits allow for an infinite combination of lightweight structures to be built with our square and rectangular tubing. Each gusset is a solid carbon fiber DragonPlate laminate. The laminate thickness is equal to our tubing wall thickness. The front face of the gusset has our low glare, scratch resistant matte finish, and the back has a peel ply finish that is ideal for bonding. Our gusset plates have been designed to work with our Scotchweld #2216 epoxy adhesive kit. This is an ideal structural adhesive with extremely high shear and peel strengths.

Each kit includes a set of pre-drilled gussets and enough blind rivets to help locate and hold the gusset plates to the tubes during bonding.

Flame Retardant Carbon Fiber

NEW PRODUCT!
Our engineers have been at it again!

Introducing DragonPlate Flame Retardant Carbon Fiber products. These carbon fiber products resist the spread of fire which makes them ideal for aviation and marine use or any other application that require flame retardant properties. Flame Retardant DragonPlate carbon fiber products have successfully passed FAR 25.853(a), Appendix F testing.

Our flame retardant laminates have the same deep luster and glossy mirror finish as our standard DragonPlate product line. We also offer flame retardant in our scratch resistant matte finish.

We can custom CNC flame retardant laminate to your CAD drawing.

(Fire extinguisher not included.)

DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Laminate  

(CF / Birch Plywood Sandwich) Learn Why Sandwich CF is Superior to Solid CF
Click to Enlarge
  Dimensions
Our fabrication process produces a sandwich structure that is exceptionally flat, stable and lighter than a solid CF laminate. DragonPlate™ Carbon Fiber Laminate is currently available in thicknesses from .025 to .250 inches thick. Standard sizes range from 6 x 6 inches up to 24 x 48 inches. Custom sizes are available upon quotation.

  Appearance
DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Laminate is produced with one side very shiny and clear for appearance, and the other side with a dull finish for bonding. The shiny side is pristine with no bubbles or voids. The carbon fiber cloth literally shimmers under the crystal clear epoxy. The bonding side is flat and non-reflective and the surface has the feel of a very fine fabric-like texture superimposed on the weave of the carbon fiber fabric. Both surfaces are completely sealed.

  Workability
DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Laminate is easy to work with. It can be cut with a band saw, coping saw, scroll saw, end mill, or dremmel tool. It can be drilled with standard twist drills. It can be assembled with fasteners or bonded with epoxy.

DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Veneer  

Click to Enlarge
Many of our customers have been using our thinnest DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Laminate as a veneer. In an effort to provide a better material for this application, we developed a carbon fiber veneer that is very flexible while still maintaining the beautiful DragonPlate finish!

DragonPlate Veneer is capable of forming to a cylindrical diameter as small as 2 inches! It will easily wrap around a coffee mug! DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Veneer can be easily cut with shears or heavy scissors and the edges can be sanded smooth. Why settle for a simulated carbon fiber decal when you can now get the real thing!

NEW SCRATCH RESISTANT MATTE FINISH!
Dragonplate veneer is available in a glossy finish and also a scratch resistant matte finish (see picture to left for comparison). Our veneers come ready to install with contact cement or for quick and easy installation, we now offer a veneer with self adhesive backing. Simply peel and stick! See how easy it is to install. View our Dashboard Veneer Installation How-to.

DragonPlate veneer is currently available in stock sizes up to 24 x 48 inches with custom sizes available upon quotation.

DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Tube   and Rod  

Pultruded in an epoxy resin, DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Tubes and Rods are exceptionally straight and rigid and are an ideal building material for frames, trusses and for use as reinforcing material. Because tube and rod are fundamental building blocks, they find great utility in the building of engineering and high performance structures, and work well in concert with DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Laminate.

DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Tubes and Rods are easy to work. They can be cut with a band saw, coping saw, scroll saw, end mill, or dremmel tool. Because DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Tube and Rod are pultruded in an epoxy matrix they will bond readily with ScotchWeld 6122 epoxy resin.

DragonPlate Carbon Fiber Tube and Rod are available in various sizes. See Sales Page for more information.

This material makes it easy to build small, lightweight carbon fiber structures, as the flat surface facilitates easy epoxy bonding. It can be used to build trusses and space frames. It can be bonded to Dragonplate, plywood, or even aluminum to provide local stiffening and reinforcement.
