The Fortress Pre-Cured Plate is manufactured for instances where High Modulus or more carbon fiber is desired and where a 4o void factor is acceptable. Plate utilizes our single sided peel ply or double sided peel ply technology for maximum bond capabilities.

DESCRIPTION:
Fortress Stabilization Systems Unidirectional Carbon Strap System is comprised of high tensile strength and modulus carbon fiber. The fibers are encapsulated in a thermal set resin and cured under pressure during manufacturing process. A peel-ply fabric is adhered to the strap; when removed it leaves a prepared bonding surface for adhesion to a prepared substrate. Fortress straps or FRP plates can be manufactured for various modulus and tensile strengths as well as indirectional systems. The modulus and tensile strength is a function of tow used in cured plate.
ADVANTAGES:
- Consistent material properties
- Prepared peel-ply bonding surface
- Pre-mixed toughened epoxy
- Able to conform to bowed surfaces
- Ease of installation
- Can be manufactured in 2",3" and 4" plates
- No acetone or sanding is necessary for laminate installation
- The only peel-ply plate available on the market. Technology borrowed from Aero Space.
- Vacuum clamping and or anchorage systems can be used in conjunction with plate
