Multiaxial (NCF) Carbon Fiber Reinforcements

Multiaxial carbon fiber reinforcement is an alternative to traditional woven carbon fiber cloth and is made up of alternately aligned layers of unidirectional carbon reinforcement. By not being woven, the fibers avoid the 'crimp' of going under and over perpendicular fibers in the way that they do in woven fabrics and so the fiber in multiaxials is intrinsically straighter and therefore stiffer under tension. Multiaxials typically use off-axis fiber orientation, such as +/- 45° and so are often included in a laminate as a convenient and efficient way to fiber orientation, and therefore strength, off-axis from the woven reinforcement.

At Easy Composites we currently stock carbon fiber multiaxial in a +/- 45° biaxial due to how effectively it can be combined with traditional woven carbon cloth to produce a laminate with relatively uniform strength in all directions, known as a quasi-isotropic layup. Our carbon fiber biax reinforcement is available in a choice of weights and widths.

Like all our reinforcement fabrics, our multiaxials are rolled to order and available to buy in any length, sold the linear metre (1.1 yards). We can also supply in wholesale full roll quantities for unbeatable pricing.
