Race Focused Composite Plate 3Racing GRAP-2040

The 3Racing GRAP-2040 is supplied as a 450 x 600mm, 4.0mm woven graphite sheet designed for builders and racers who tune chassis stiffness and component layout. The weave and thickness deliver repeatable mechanical properties for setup work.

Tuning and Setup Advantages

Racing builders will value the plate for predictable stiffness when fabricating shock towers, chassis braces and bulkheads. The material machines cleanly and supports tight tolerances for alignment-critical parts.

Specifications

  • Thickness: 4.0mm
  • Dimensions: 450 x 600mm
  • Material: Woven Graphite

For competitive applications where consistency matters, the 3Racing GRAP-2040 provides a high value option for constructing tuning-sensitive components.

What machining methods preserve mechanical properties?

Use CNC routing with sharp carbide tools, or band saws with fine blades; minimise heat and use light passes to retain fibre bonding and structural integrity.

How does the plate affect chassis flex tuning?

Adding 4.0mm woven graphite plates in strategic locations increases local stiffness and can reduce unwanted twist, allowing finer tuning of handling balance.

Recommended bonding methods for race builds?

Structural epoxy systems are preferred for their mechanical strength; use appropriate surface prep and clamp while curing to achieve consistent joints.

Are there trimming tips to maintain symmetry for setup work?

Lay out parts symmetrically on the sheet, cut mirror pairs together where possible, and verify fit on a jig to preserve identical geometry across sides.
