Durable and long-lasting:
Fibre composites from KREMPEL in engineering
Engineering has long been dominated by conventional materials. Increasingly specialised requirements have however led to much rethinking. Composite materials have low specific weight, can be subjected to extreme mechanical and thermal loads and are characterized by enormous resistance to corrosion.
The low thermal expansion of CRP and the completely novel structural possibilities offered by this group of materials have made a considerable contribution to this breakthrough. They can, for instance, be used to make flexion-resistant profiles with a coefficient of thermal expansion of around 010-6, ideal for use a feeler gauges and guide elements.
Put your trust in new solutions. You can rely on prepregs, sheets, tubes and profiles from Krempel.
