Racing-focused Woven Graphite from 3Racing

The 3Racing 2.25mm woven graphite sheet provides a consistent platform for building lightweight, stiff components used in competition models. Its 450 x 600mm size allows fabricators to produce multiple matched parts from a single panel while maintaining material uniformity across pieces.

Performance-minded Material Characteristics

Woven graphite offers predictable stiffness and fatigue behaviour, which is valuable when tuning chassis flex and response. The 2.25mm thickness is a common selection for balancing torsional rigidity with minimal weight increase in racing applications.

Tuning and Fabrication Notes

Use the sheet to craft chassis plates, damper mounts, or bespoke braces. When trimming, keep grain orientation in mind to maintain directional stiffness, and test-fit parts before final bonding to ensure alignment and tolerances match your setup needs.

How should I orient the weave for chassis panels?

Align the primary weave direction with the axis that needs the most stiffness; for torsional bracing place the weave to maximise resistance across the chassis beam.

What adhesive is recommended for race use?

Use a low-viscosity epoxy designed for composites for structural joins; clamp and cure under controlled pressure to avoid voids and ensure consistent strength.

Can I trim tolerances with a router?

A benchtop router with a carbide bit yields accurate profiles; take light passes and support the panel to prevent vibration and edge fray.

Is laminating multiple sheets advisable for stiffness tuning?

Laminating can tune stiffness but increases thickness and weight; choose lamination only after validating handling gains in test runs.
