ABOUT THE PRODUCT

FORGED CARBON FIBER "Dark Matter Copper"

It might just be the case that fatcarbon® forged carbon fiber “Dark Matter Copper” is quite literally made from the stuff of stars. You see, copper, along with other heavy elements, is produced in the furnaces at the cores of stars. And as they die – a massive explosion scatters these elements far into space. Some scientists believe that four and a half billion years ago, our infant Earth inherited its copper reserves in exactly such a way – from the explosion of giant stars.

We have now repurposed some of that copper and forged it into our carbon fiber at high pressure and heat…

WORK

The possibilities are endless...

fatcarbon® forged carbon fiber  “Dark Matter Copper” sheets are made using recycled carbon fiber rowing, biobased epoxy resin, copper metal, and renewable energy. The result is an incredible look, lightweight (1,8/cm3), and durable, resistant to heat (120c) composite.

  • Same look throughout the entire thickness (up to 12.7mm (1/2″) thick).
  • Good mechanical properties, excellent for drilling, milling, sanding, and polishing.
  • Resistant to all cleaning agents, oils, greases, weak acids, and degreasers which makes it perfect for use in EDC tools.
  • It can be polished, or clear-coated to achieve a “deep look”.
  • “Dark matter” metal version forged carbon fiber composite available with copper and bronze additives.
  • Available in blocks up to 12,7 mm (1/2″) thick and 160x480mm (6×19″) in size. For custom requests, please contact us
