Technical Specifications
Piper Carbon Air Wheels
Carbon fiber vs aluminum is between two and five times more rigid. Stiffness depends on the carbon layup and design.
Replacing aluminum in an object with carbon fiber can reduce its weight by nearly half without compromising strength and rigidity.
It’s also important to compare the strength of the two materials which have the same thickness. Aluminum has a strength of about 500 kilonewtons vs carbon fiber can have up to 1600 kilonewtons of strength.
When you need something rigid, strong, and lightweight – carbon fiber is the best option. This is why it’s already being used in aircraft, motorsports, and medical manufacturing industries.
