The number in the Harness Satin names indicates the total number of tows passed over then under. For 4HS, it will pass over 3 tows then under 1. For 5HS, it will pass over 4 then under 1, and 8HS will pass over 7 and under 1. As a result, the fabric is flatter and more easily draped over the most complex shapes, especially compared to plain or satin weaves.
It offers superior wet-out capability because it is sized with a coupling agent that provides a chemical bond between the carbon fiber and various resins. It is suitable for use in wet layup, vacuum bagging and resin infusion manufacturing and is compatible with polyester, vinyl-ester and epoxy resins.
