Hi all, looking to get several metres of 12" unidirectional carbon for a couple of projects. A google search for local suppliers yields very few products and exorbitant prices compared to international ebay options. I'm fine with buying from overseas via ebay but wondering if you have local suppliers with reasonable product range and price?

Thanks, that works for me. I'd been to their site but somehow only saw the narrower tapes which work out much more expensive per square metre. Carbon ordered - project time!

A few suppliers I'd recommend, agree Google searches for this stuff is really hard. Play with carbon do some cool stuff in vac bag supplies too.

Shapers.com.au - good range, ok prices. Do more rail tapes than sheets of carbon. Good for small quantities and ship anywhere.

Sanded.com.au - do some interesting alternative materials including basalt and innegra. May have some carbon tapes. Bit pricey, but cool products.

Colan.com.au - need to order descent quantities, but have anything imaginable.

Fibreglass and Resin Supplies - WA supplier in Welshpool. Good prices, have basic uni directional and bi directional carbon tapes and sheets.

My 2 cents.

For quantity, can't beat Soller Composites USA. Half the price. Or less....

Thanks FOT - per meter we are quite reasonable -(cheaper than others if you look at their per metre price) and have over 180 variants of Rail tapes -in Carbon we have every width from 20mm - 120mm, we also have a carbon innegra hex weave (4oz) cloth 27inch that is $20 per metre

As well as a 1.2m wide 6oz 100% Carbon Cloth in a twill (easier to wrap around rails )

I have 6oz clear cloth with carbon twine 10 mm apart if you like using on my deck and off cut on the bottom
