Carbon fiber is used for light weight.

Depending on the type and point of load, CF is stronger than steel.

There 2 types of CF. Dry and Wet.

Dry carbons are the lightess and also more expensive than wet.

But both shatter / crack on impact.

Carbon fiber is not a good heat conductor. Is has poor heat disipating and absorbing properties.

Real genuine CF products are very very expensive.

For example, a dry carbon Varis hood price is about RM5K++ whereas imitation CF hoods are priced around RM1K++
