CFRP and GFRP costs

thread327-229934: Cost of composite materials

CompoMan - I found your thread from quite a while ago enquiring about the cost of some carbon fibres. I was wondering if you found any luck with it.

I am also interesting in getting rough prices for M55J and T300, as well as E-Glass. I do not need very accurate figures, I just want to know the sort of magnitude and relative prices. Particularly whether M55J or T300 is the more expensive and possibly by how much?

Thanks!  

RE: CFRP and GFRP costs

M55J is probably more expensive than T300.  A very wild guess is about 2X more.

Call the material suppliers (Toray, Hexcel, Cytec, etc) and ask them.

Thank you SW!

That is surprising, however. I did mention the wrong CFRP, it is actually T300J that I am interested in. I'm not sure if that changes anything?

I was under the impression that M55J was actually the cheaper. Are you quite sure about this? But I'll try to contact suppliers nonetheless.
