009 2x2 twill weave.
Kevlar carbon fiber.
The important thing to take away is that carbon fiber is about twice as stiff as kevlar and about 5 times stiffer than glass.
2 x 2 twill tow size.
Kevlar aramid is used for high performance composite applications where lightweight high strength and stiffness damage resistance and resistance to fatigue and stress rupture are important.
3k x 1500 kevlar thickness.
The actual figures presented here are for comparison only.
Although not as stiff as carbon fiber a kevlar or carbon kevlar part can be designed to be much stronger than one solely comprising carbon fiber or fiberglass in certain applications.
Kevlar fabrics can be used with or as a great alternative to carbon fiber or fiberglass.
The benefits of kevlar are well known namely a high degree of toughness and resistance to impact.
Kevlar fiber has a tensile strength comparable with that of carbon fiber a modulus between those of glass and carbon fibers and lower density than both.
Fibre glast only carries kevlar 49 fabrics.
Composites grade kevlar is lightweight impact resistant abrasion resistant heat resistant and has great strength properties for the most demanding applications.
Kevlar is a heat resistant and strong synthetic fiber related to other aramids such as nomex and technora developed by stephanie kwolek at dupont in 1965 this high strength material was used first commercially in the early 1970s as a replacement for steel in racing tires.
Carbon fiber is by far the stiffer of the composite materials.
Fabrics containing both carbon fiber and kevlar in one woven fabric.
