In this guide, we look at the different patterns used or offered on our brand of carbon fiber parts.
1x1 Plain Weave Carbon Fiber
The warp and weft yarns go up and down, alternating in staggered rows, commonly known as "pressing and picking". Due to there are many intertwining points, the fabric has high stiffness and the texture is not easily deformed.

2x2 Twill Weave Carbon Fiber
The warp and weft yarns are two up and two down, alternating in staggered rows, commonly known as pressed two-for-two. Because there are relatively few interweaving points, the fabric is relatively soft and can be bent to form any surface.
