forged carbon fiber

What is forged carbon fiber? It is a very strong new thing. It is also very light. It has a cool look.

Old carbon fiber looks like cloth. It has lines that cross. Forged carbon fiber looks different. It looks like small, dark chips. The chips are all pressed flat. This makes a nice pattern, like a stone.

How is it made? We take small bits of carbon. The bits are short. We put them in a mold. A mold is a shape. Then we press it very, very hard. This makes it stick together. This way is fast to do. It can also use old bits of carbon. This helps save money. The old way takes a long time to weave long strips.

This new way makes it very strong. It is strong from the top. It is strong from the side. It is strong all over. Being light and strong is good for many things.

Fast cars use forged carbon fiber. A car company named Lamborghini uses it. It makes their cars very light. A light car can go very fast. Car parts can be made from it. You can get a steering wheel made of it. You can get wheels made of it. Light wheels help the car go fast. It is also used inside the car. Parts on the dash or the gear knob can be made from it. It makes the inside of the car look great.

We can make more than car parts. We can make parts for a bike. We can make parts for a drone. We can even make nice pens or watches.

Some people just want the cool look. They can buy a fake look. A special paint can be put on parts. It is put on with water. It looks like real forged carbon fiber. But it is not the real thing. It is not as strong or light. It just has the look.
