Leave it to K&N
to come up with products
that have both cosmetic appeal as well as deliver outstanding performance. K&N's
Carbon fiber composites have attractive cosmetic appeal, and the outstanding
stiffness to weight ratio that is needed to stay competitive in today's racing
industry. Carbon fiber composites have taken the method traditionally associated
with fiberglass and perfected it to a precise science with outstanding performance
as the result. The process of advanced composites controls resin and fiber content
to exacting tolerances. Though traditional methods have proven successful in
producing a variety of products; advanced composite products can be engineered
considerably stronger and assembled with even greater accuracy. K&N's Advanced
Composite Division offers products to really get excited about.
Carbon fiber, as a
raw material, has been treated to handle heat from below 0 to 2500 degrees Fahrenheit.
In most cases the limiting factor is the matrix or resin system, not the reinforcement
material such as carbon fiber, fiberglass or Kevlar. Epoxies are no longer a
simple brush on mix of basic compounds. Chemists have spent years maximizing
the function of the matrix by blending epoxies with ceramics and a number of
other ingredients. It is a precise science where strength, durability, function
and temperature all have to be considered. Our products are engineered with
specific resin systems for application specific needs. These products must take
into consideration such things as: fire retardant resins, ceramic blends to
handle high heat and flexible systems for damage tolerance. This same kind of
consideration goes into everything K&N makes.
