Carbon Composite
Material
PA12-CF
Carbon-filled nylon 12 - the metal replacement workhorse.
PA12-CF combines chopped carbon fiber with PA12 to deliver aerospace-grade stiffness at a fraction of the weight of aluminum. It is our most-ordered engineering material for jigs, fixtures, drone frames and structural brackets.
