Features:

• Carbon / Graphite Bi-Directional Cloth Fabric Tape
• 3" Wide
• .012 Thick
• Weight: 170 gsm
• Count: 20 x 8
• Style: G500 / Ml-500
• Handles like fiberglass and provides exceptional strength and stiffness
• Suited for high impact use
• Salvaged Edge woven cloth tapes do not fray or unravel
• They also provide more uniformity to the tape and superior strength tapes have a soft hand, and therefore drape easily
• They also conform to difficult tooling and wet lay-up applications
• Mutual carbon/graphite bi-directional fabric tapes are among the strongest and stiffest of the reinforcing materials being used today in structural composites
• These tapes exhibit outstanding fatigue resistance and can be tailored to meet specific loading conditions
• Mutual Industries provides design, prototyping and new product development capabilities to assist its customers in finding new cost effective uses for its carbon/graphite bi-directional fabric tapes
• This technical support offered by Mutual often results in end applications never envisioned before
• Mutual's carbon/graphite bi-directional fabric tapes are produced from polyacrylonitrile (PAN) precursor
• This material is surface treated to promote adhesion to organic matrix polymers and is sized with an epoxy or polyimide-compatible material to improve the handling characteristics
