1K 100 GSM Carbon Fiber Fabric – Twill Weave
Lightweight Twill Weave 1K Carbon Fiber Fabric for High-Aesthetic & Precision Composites
1K 100 GSM Carbon Fiber Fabric – Twill Weave is a premium lightweight woven reinforcement material produced from 1,000-filament (1K) carbon fiber tows, interlaced in a twill weave pattern (typically 2×2).
This construction delivers excellent drapability, a smooth diagonal carbon appearance, and balanced bidirectional strength, making it ideal for complex-shaped composite parts and visible carbon fiber applications.
With an areal weight of 100 GSM, this fabric provides an optimal balance between lightweight construction, improved handling, and refined surface finish compared to lower GSM fabrics.
Key Performance Advantages
- Tow Size: 1K (1,000 filaments per tow)
- Areal Weight: 100 GSM
- Twill Weave (2×2) Construction
- Excellent Drapability for Complex Contours
- Smooth Diagonal Aesthetic Finish
- Balanced Bidirectional Strength (0° / 90°)
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
- Reduced Fiber Crimp vs Plain Weave
- Electrically Conductive (EMI Shielding Capable)
The twill weave structure improves flexibility, resin flow, and laminate surface quality, especially on curved surfaces.
