Carbon fibre tow is the bundles (rovings) of individual carbon fibre filaments that are usually interwoven to create woven carbon fibre fabric.
On its own, tow can be wound around joints or sections or layered to create unidirectional reinforcement of any shape or size, particularly on model planes, helicopters, boats and robotics projects.
This 3k tow is the lightest we offer. We also supply a heavier 12k tow .

Yeild
3k tow weighs 200mg (milligrams) per meter. This means that a 100m spool weighs 20g and that a full 1kg spool is approximately 5000m of tow.
Our carbon fibre tow is available on a 100m reel or on the original full 1kg spool that they are manufactured in. The large 1k spool is how the tow is used when commercially weaving carbon fibre cloth.
