Epoxy Tooling Prepregs

Evopreg® EPT epoxy tooling prepregs are a range of pre-impregnated fabrics suitable for the production of composite tooling.

Products

Evopreg® EPT prepregs are designed for manufacturing high performance composite tooling. They are based on in-house formulated epoxy resin systems which provide a range of cure temperatures, easy lay-up, excellent surface finish and mould durability.

Evopreg® EPT epoxy tooling prepregs can be supplied with a wide range of reinforcements and fabric constructions including carbon, glass and ampliTex™ flax. They are best consolidated in an autoclave.

Evopreg® EPT110

50°C, 12 hour curing tooling prepreg

Evopreg® EPT110 tooling prepregs are based on a toughened epoxy resin system, formulated specifically for low temperature initial cure, high temperature performance after post-cure and excellent surface finish.

Evopreg® EPT120

Long outlife, flexible cure tooling prepreg

Evopreg® EPT120 epoxy tooling prepregs are designed to help composite tooling manufacturers improve the flexibility and efficiency of their tooling manufacturing processes, by offering a cost-effective system that combines extended outlife with variable curing cycles.

Evopreg® ampliTex™ hybrid tooling

Sustainable tooling system using ampliTex™ flax fibre

Evopreg® ampliTex™ hybrid tooling uses layers of natural flax fibre, in place of carbon fibre, to reduce the carbon footprint and environmental impact of composite tooling. The majority of bulking plies in a conventional 1-8-1 carbon tooling lay-up can be replaced, whilst maintaining excellent surface finish and dimensional stability. Evopreg® ampliTex™ is a collaboration with Bcomp.
