Monkeytoe XBeam

Product Description

XBeam is made from the combination of 2 technologies, carbon fibre-reinforced polymers and High Tensile T6 Aluminium.  Carbon fibre’s strength as a material comes down to the nature of the composite. The ability to tailor the direction of the carbon fibres means it can yield stiffness 20 times greater than a metal baseline. That means carbon fibre structures can span further distances and support greater weights while also weighing less –opening doors for greater designs.    This is also suitable for other external long span high load applications where Steel “I beams” are used.

Benefits

• Lightweight
• No surface coating requirements for corrosion protection
• Low deflection for superior acoustic performance
• Substantial reduction in height work
• Reduce risk of damage to the roof by assembling the platform at ground level.
• Less load on the building structure. 65% lighter than a steel equivalent.
• A complete platform system.
• Pre-engineered and highly configurable.
