Likely the second most common question we get asked. So what is the difference between a solid carbon fiber plate and a sandwich panel made from carbon fiber? Check out this short video to learn the difference and why you might want a sandwich panel over a solid composite plate. Note that this applies to a whole family of materials, not just carbon fiber or fiberglass. Conceptually, even the bridge you drive over in your car is built leaning on these same concepts.

Im looking for something I can mount to the top of my canoe, to use as a casting deck. It must be able to hold two adults, so about 300 lbs across a max span of 38" and 8-10' long. I would also like to be able to cut holes in it, attach a lid for underneath storage access. While being as light as possible. What would you suggest and at what cost are we talking?

At 2:38 in this video a graphic is shown that identifies stiffness and weight and how it changes as a function of thickness of the core. What is the unit of measure that would apply to the stiffness?

That fat plate is a monster! How was that made? Can you press-mold full 4x8 sheets?

@RockWestComposites 3 жыл бұрын

A serious monster! It was made in a press. We are not currently set up to press 4' x 8' sheets however we infuse 4' x 10' sheets every day. We have partners however that can press up to 10'ers. Shoot us a request via email. info@rockwestcomposites.com and we'll follow-up there!

Thanks for the excelent primer on panels vs plates. Do you offer inexpensive, lightweight composite panels suitable for use as enclosure wall panels?
