Spectra: Highest strength-to-weight ratio of any fiber on the market Ten times stronger than steel 40% stronger than Kevlar Lighter than Carbon or Fiberglass No known health hazards Proven effective in the space, sailing and armor industries	Carbon Proven strength and rigidity Allows for very light weight Higher cost than other layup materials Can not buff edges Can not change shapes after lamination Causes itching and irritation Can not be pigmented
SpectraCarb may be particularly beneficial when used on the inner layer of two-stage laminations. The unique properties of this material allow for superb strength, while maintaining some flexibility. Rigidity can be attained in appropriate areas by using strips of carbon tape for reinforcement. These same properties make this material an ideal choice for use in orthotic laminations!
