1K 120gsm Carbon Fiber Fabric Satin Weave

Carbon Fiber Fabric 1K – 120 GSM Satin Weave

Premium Satin Weave 1K Carbon Fiber Fabric for Superior Drapability & High-End Surface Finish

Carbon Fiber Fabric 1K – 120 GSM Satin Weave is a high-performance woven reinforcement material manufactured from 1,000-filament (1K) carbon fiber tows, arranged in a satin weave pattern (commonly 4H or 5H).

This advanced weave structure provides exceptional drapability, reduced fiber crimp, and a smooth, luxurious carbon surface appearance, making it ideal for complex-shaped composite parts and visible carbon fiber components where both aesthetics and structural performance are critical.

With an areal weight of 120 GSM, this fabric offers enhanced mechanical contribution and laminate stability compared to lighter satin weave fabrics, while maintaining excellent flexibility and surface quality.
