PC Carbon Fiber Woven Fabric Prepreg Tape Tacky Surface 0.5mm Thickness for Hand Layup Processing
Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer since 1998 with annual export value of US$5–10 million, presents our PC Carbon Fiber Woven Fabric Prepreg Tape with a tacky surface and 0.5mm thickness. This prepreg tape is specifically engineered for hand layup processing, offering excellent drapeability, uniform resin distribution, and a controlled tack level that simplifies layering on complex molds. With over two decades of experience in composite materials, we deliver a product that balances performance, consistency, and ease of use—ideal for prototyping, repair, and low-to-medium volume production across multiple industries.
Our prepreg tape uses a woven carbon fiber fabric pre-impregnated with a specially formulated polycarbonate (PC) resin system. The 0.5mm thickness provides a lightweight yet strong reinforcement layer, while the tacky surface ensures secure adhesion to substrates without additional adhesive. Whether you are manufacturing aerospace components, automotive parts, or sporting goods, this tape offers a reliable, clean processing experience with minimal waste. Below, we detail the key features and technical specifications that make our product a preferred choice for hand layup applications.

Advantages for Hand Layup Processing
- Excellent drapeability: The woven fabric conforms easily to curved and complex shapes, reducing bridging and wrinkling during layup.
- Optimized tack: The tacky surface holds layers in place during assembly, eliminating the need for additional spray adhesives or tackifiers.
- Consistent resin content: Each roll is manufactured with precise resin-to-fiber ratio, ensuring uniform mechanical properties across the part.
- Low void content: The prepreg is vacuum-bagged during production, resulting in minimal air entrapment and higher laminate quality.
- Extended working time: At room temperature, the prepreg remains workable for several hours; for longer projects, frozen storage preserves reactivity.
- Clean handling: The release film prevents sticking to gloves and tools, making layup faster and less messy.
- Compatible with standard curing cycles: Can be cured under vacuum bag or pressure bag at temperatures between 120°C and 180°C (depending on resin formulation).
- Customizable width and fiber orientation: We can slit the tape to your desired width or provide unidirectional variants upon request.
Customer benefits: By choosing our prepreg tape, manufacturers save time on resin mixing and wet layup, reduce material waste, and achieve more repeatable laminate thickness. The PC resin system offers excellent impact resistance and thermal stability compared to standard epoxy systems. For hand layup operations, this translates to faster production cycles, lower labor costs, and higher quality finished parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What does "PC" stand for in your product name?
A: In our product, "PC" refers to the resin system used—Polycarbonate. This resin provides high toughness, low moisture absorption, and good thermal stability, making it suitable for demanding hand layup applications. -
Q: Can I use this prepreg tape for vacuum bagging or autoclave processing?
A: Yes, the tape is designed for hand layup but can also be used with vacuum bagging. For autoclave curing, please consult our technical team to confirm compatibility with your specific cycle parameters. -
Q: What is the shelf life and how should I store the prepreg tape?
A: The standard shelf life is 6 months when stored at -18°C (freezer). At room temperature (20-25°C), it remains usable for about 1 month. We recommend keeping the roll sealed in its original packaging to prevent moisture ingress. -
Q: Do you offer custom widths or lengths?
A: Absolutely. We can slit the tape to any width from 50mm to 1500mm, and the roll length can be adjusted based on your order quantity. Custom fiber orientation (e.g., unidirectional) is also available upon request. -
Q: What is the curing temperature range for this prepreg?
A: The polycarbonate resin typically cures between 120°C and 180°C. The exact cure cycle depends on your part geometry and required properties. We provide a recommended cure schedule with each shipment. -
Q: Is this product RoHS compliant? Does it have any certifications?
A: Our materials are manufactured to comply with common environmental standards. For specific certification requirements (e.g., RoHS, REACH), please contact us—we can provide supporting documentation based on the batch. -
Q: How do I clean the tacky surface if it gets contaminated?
A: The tacky surface is designed to be clean; if contamination occurs, gently wipe the surface with a lint-free cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol. Avoid using solvents that may attack the resin. -
Q: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer sample rolls (typically 300mm x 300mm or 100mm x 1m) for evaluation. Please contact our sales team to arrange a sample with your preferred width and thickness.
