This fabric is extremely tightly woven and is commonly used in aerospace and other high quality applications. Meets MIL-C-9084C, Type III. Our carbon braid is sold by the pound from the manufacturer. Yield is based on a feet-per-pound ratio because of its tendency to elongate significantly. Most other carbon is pulled off of a spool and cut at its stretched length, dramatically affecting yield. At Fabtech, we weigh our carbon so our customer is guaranteed to get what they are paying for.
