Pre-Preg Sources

(OP)
I'm looking to source some room temperature to low temperature (less than 200 deg F) plain or twill weave carbon fiber. I don't need that much (i.e. a 50" wide roll is going to be too wide). Does anyone have a source for inexpensive pre-preg? For my dry fabrics I have been using Soller Composites and I have been happy with them. Thanks!

RE: Pre-Preg Sources

Check with FiberGlast corporation
They will sell prepreg by the yard with a 10 yard minimum.

RE: Pre-Preg Sources

Take care with shipping and read the small print. I get prepreg once in a while for certain jobs, it comes in a refrigerated truck, the last time I got a shipment, the delivery guys 'forgot'/didnt know it had to be kept cool. It arrived in a normal van, and had been sitting in that van for the weekend. It was unusable. Check to see if your supplier covers the delivery care side of things too. Mine does not accept any claims once they load the truck.
