Ultra High Modulus (UHM) Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Plates Sika CarboDur Ultra High Modulus (UHM) Plates are high performance, corrosion resistant carbon fibre plates for strengthening metallic structures. The plates are manufactured to individual project dimensional specifications. When used in conjunction with SikaDur-30 structural epoxy adhesive, they form the Sika CarboDur Ultra High Modulus (UHM) Plate System. - Excellent durability.
- Lightweight.
- Low overall thickness; can be coated.
- Easy transportation.
- Outstanding fatigue resistance.
- Minimal preparation of plate.
- Combinations of high strength and modulus of elasticity available.
- High alkali resistance.
- Clean edges without exposed fibres.
- Particularly suited to strengthening metallic structures.
- Individually manufactured plates to required dimensions.
- Excellent durability and resistance to corrosion.
- Lightweight.
- Tapered ends to minimise peel stresses.
- Single adhesive substrate/plate bond line.
- Minimum disruption to service environment.
- Fast and economical - no heavy handling and installation equipment.
- Low aesthetic impact.
- Non-corrosive.
- Ultra High Modulus.
