Recommendations for processing

FairPly is a dry material that requires resin for optimal performance. It is fully compatible with both epoxy and polyurethane resins and can be combined with a variety of other virgin materials, such as dry glass fiber, dry carbon fiber, prepregs, foam, and honeycomb.

Various resin impregnation methods can be used, including:

Resin films

Liquid resin application

Impregnation with resin-rich prepregs

For effective impregnation, a minimum of 100 gsm of resin is recommended. The ideal molding temperature range for FairPly is between 20°C and 200°C.

FairPly can be cut to shape before molding. The recommended cutting method is using an oscillating cutting machine with the following settings:

Line speed: 20 mm/s

Curve speed: 10 mm/s

Blade: Carbon material blade
