| Hi Fellow DIYers
Has anyone found a good source of UHM carbon for home builders? Seems to really hard to find online. As masts have got longer it’s becoming harder and harder to get them stiff enough
Cheers | |

| Did a search for Dialead ; "Dialead cloth to sell"
that's what i found; yes from r-g
https://shop1.r-g.de/en/art/190254
Dialead(tm) from K63712 carbon fiber, ('Pitch' base carbone not 'Pan' base for UHM--- if i'm correct---) not cheap....
Was curious and trying to find UHM fiber in North America

| Thanks for the replies guys, that is pretty much what I found as well. Fibermax have M46 twill cloth, but no UHM uni. I even e-mailed a couple of the Ali-express shops and they replied that they couldn't sell UHM because the supply is controlled by the government because of military restrictions.
It's out there, we just can't get it very easily!
