DragonPlate carbon fiber composite products are designed for use in constructing high performance structures and are simple to work with as they can be easily cut, drilled and assembled for a wide variety of applications. DragonPlate offers a wide selection of standard sizes in carbon fiber laminate, veneer, angle, tube, rod and more.
DragonPlate also offers engineer design and custom fabrication for your unique carbon fiber part. With experience in aviation, biomedical and DoD projects, we have a broad base of experience to draw on. Our designers are experienced in AutoCAD and SolidWorks. Our complete manufacturing facility can handle multiple processes from one to thousands of parts.
Thank you! We do not have a European representative. However, we ship internationally from our office in the US. For more information, you can reach us at: dragonplate.com/contact-us
I am not sure if the use of phenolics is the reason for that? Phenolics are usually less heat resistant than epoxy resins. So, isn't it supposed to be the opposite case? Can anyone explain. Also, can you give more info on how the high temp carbon fibers?
For the rods featured in the video, the tensile strength is 320 ksi and the compressive strength is 270 ksi. For tubes, the specs would depend on which tube you are interested in. If you contact us at sales@allredcorp.com with more information, we can help you with the material properties you want.
No I think it put a context to its uses and limitations. Most people have never heard of carbon fiber before OceanGate. Most people wouldn't recognize the stuff if they were riding in a plane made out of it.
I’m here cause of Oceangate tradegy. Carbon Fiber may be strong but not as strong as steel. Like James Cameron said they should always use steel for sub pressure tank.
Not as strong as steel? James Cameron, a canadian film director? Does he have a PHD in Chemistry, Physics or anything important or is he just talking crap thinking he knows that steel is "stronger" than carbon fiber?
It's not the carbon fiber that was the problem, but the company who didn't check on the submarine and maybe do the safety measures. The submarine had previously gone deep into the ocean with no problem.
It’s very strong when used properly. It’s weak when vertical pressure is applied, which is what you get in the ocean. This is a terrible product for that. It’s amazing in air tanks and internal pressure uses.
@@mastercraft888ro? You know that there's a reason carbon fiber was chosen over any other metal, it's lighter and stronger. Anything else would have also failed suddenly and catastrophically under those pressures. Well not suddenly, pretty slow, but it would be inevitable and much easier to destroy. Don't want your submarine to deform itself and potentially sink every time it goes into the water
@@ellidominusser1138 when carbon fiber fails it shatters literally. Alvin made of steel and titanium has had more trips to the depth of the ocean than OceanGate
عن نفسي ما افظل اركب اشاء كاربون فايبر لان الشركات ما تكلك شكد الكاربن فايبر يلين تحت درجات الحراره المستمره خاصه بالعراق افظل الالمنيوم او المكنيزيوم او التايتيتيوم ما يلين تحت درجه الحرارة
*_@abwoturab29_* Translated: Personally, I don't prefer to ride anything carbon fibre because companies don't tell you how carbon fibre softens under constant temperatures, especially in Iraq. I prefer aluminium, magnesium, or titanium, which -softens- do not soften under temperature.
DragonPlate high-temperature carbon fiber sheets incorporate a unique carbon fiber/phenolic prepreg laminate formulated and processed to give excellent properties at temperatures much higher than standard epoxy products can withstand. These high-temperature sheets maintain most of their rigidity up to 500 F and can withstand short durations at much higher temperatures. Due to the phenolic resin system, these sheets are flame retardant and can survive short-duration contact by direct flame.
I need that for a seat post building a bicycle frame. It needs to telescope hundreds of time during the day under load, adjusting the seat position. ( Seat post dropper). Would be nice if there would be an appropriate solution!!!
If you're asking if parts are in stock, yes they are depending on the quantity you are looking for. For a more timely response, please email service@dragonplate.com for further information.
Yes, a palm router can be used. It would be best to make a rough pass leaving a little bit of material, then adjust router bit depth (too use a brand new section of the bit) for a finish pass. We would also recommend to finish sand the edge of carbon fiber with a fine sand paper to eliminate an fuzzy fibers 400grit up to 200grit depending on final use.
This depends on the length of tube and loading conditions. It is difficult to give a definitive answer without further details. If you'd like to get more information, you can send your questions to service@dragonplate.com
