Carbon fiber sheets

[aghobby]

I'm looking to find carbon fiber sheets to cut rc helis parts.
Do someone have an idea of where i can find it?
I'm looking for 3/16" board.

Thanks for help,
Alex

Very light and strong. The customer service is also the best I've ever experienced.

Does anyone have any experience finding it as scrap? If so, what places of business should we start digging through trash bins

digging through trash bins is not gonna get you good material...I have had some luck buying pieces that aerospace companies cut off of larger sheets I have ended up with some big useful pieces.


BTW do you really need 3/16? thats really thick

[teilhardo]

any aerospace companies in particular? In san diego maybe?

How much will that 12"x12" cost?

Can Carbon Fiber be cut with carbide end mills without any coolant?

80$ For 12X12" .100 thick.

It can be cut without coolant, it's like cutting fiberglass.
