On top of this, the most commonly used and desirable materials are in short supply.
Carbonology.com has commissioned its own pre-preg from a main supplier so its customers can buy short lengths of carbon fibre pre-preg, including the (3k) 200gsm twill fabrics, available next day if ordered before noon.
The standard roll sizes are 5 and 10m2.
The resin system C115 is a toughened system for vacuum bag processing, which has a minimum cure temp of 115C and is fire retardant.
Resin weight is 40%.
Tests show it is co-curable with the other main brands of pre-preg.
Steve Greaves, Sales and Marketing Director at Carbonology.com, said: "The ethos behind Carbonology.com has always been to give our customers the sizes that they want, and within a reasonable time scale".
"We are very happy that we can now extend this service to include pre-preg reinforcements and especially 200g carbon fibre fabric".
