Spread-tow carbon fibre fabric is a dry carbon fibre reinforcement much like a conventional woven cloth, but is manufactured using a special 'spreading' technology to make the individual tows of carbon fibre very flat and wide. The result is a fabric that is smoother and flatter than a conventional woven cloth with less of the 'crimp' that occurs each time warp and weft tows intersect each other. This reduced crimp means that spread tow fabrics can provide marginal stiffness advantages, as well as reduced 'print' onto the laminate's surface. Owing to the large scale of the weave pattern, spread tow fabric can be very effective in producing natural carbon fibre finish components with a larger, bolder carbon fibre weave pattern.

Like all our reinforcement fabrics, our spread-tow carbon fibre fabrics are rolled to order and available to buy in any length, sold the linear metre. We can also supply in wholesale full roll quantities for unbeatable pricing.
