Carbon Fiber Strips
Flat carbon fiber strip is a builder's staple for adding stiffness along a straight run without much added weight. Where a round rod resists bending in every direction, a strip is strongest edge-on, which makes it a natural fit for spar caps, trailing edges, and long stiffeners.
Sizes and Ordering
This category offers carbon strip in a variety of cross-section sizes, so you can pick a width and thickness that matches the load and the space you have. Orders here carry a minimum of six pieces total, and sizes may be mixed within that minimum, letting you combine several dimensions in one order.
Typical Uses
Modelers reach for carbon strip to reinforce built-up wings, brace fuselage sides, and back up hinge lines and control surfaces where a flat profile lies flatter against the structure than a rod would.
Select from the sizes below and combine strips to reach the six-piece minimum.
