Quality Protection
“Hexcel is a leading advanced composites company — delivering high-performance prepregs, resins, adhesives, fabrics, and tooling materials that enable the next generation of aerospace structures.”
Coast-Line is proud to support Hexcel’s complete range of aerospace-grade composite materials — including prepregs, resins, adhesives, fabrics & reinforcements, and tooling solutions — and is here to assist US customers with samples, urgent requests, and safety stock inventory management.
Product Range
Hexcel’s material systems are engineered for the most demanding aerospace environments — combining lightweight construction with exceptional mechanical performance across a broad processing temperature range.
Hexcel prepregs and resin systems deliver consistent fiber-to-resin ratios and superior out-of-autoclave properties, enabling manufacturers to achieve tighter tolerances with reduced cycle times.
| Product Category | Key Grades / Types | Typical Applications | Process Method |
|---|---|---|---|
| Prepregs | HexPly® M21, M77, 8552 | Primary aerospace structures, fairings, control surfaces | Autoclave / OOA |
| Resins & RTM Systems | HexFlow® RTM6, RTM601 | Resin transfer moulding, infusion, injection | RTM / VARTM |
| Structural Adhesives | Redux® 312, 319, 609 | Bonding composite assemblies, metal-to-composite joints | Film adhesive / paste |
| Fabrics & Reinforcements | HiMax®, HiTape®, woven fabrics | Secondary structures, dry preforms, filament winding | Infusion / wet layup |
| Tooling Materials | HexTOOL®, tooling prepregs | Matched CTE tooling, jigs, fixtures, master models | Autoclave cure |
Industry-leading tensile, compression, and interlaminar shear strength across a wide temperature range — from cryogenic to elevated service temperatures.
Compatible with autoclave, out-of-autoclave (OOA), resin transfer moulding (RTM), and infusion processes — adapting to your existing manufacturing workflow.
Extended prepreg out-life (up to 30 days at ambient) reduces scrap and scheduling pressure during complex layup operations.
Tightly controlled resin content and areal weight ensure batch-to-batch repeatability — critical for certified aerospace production programs.
Toughened resin systems with exceptional CAI (compression after impact) values, supporting damage-tolerant design philosophies.
Materials qualified to major aerospace primes and OEM specifications. Flight-proven across commercial aviation, defense, and space programs.
Precision Tooling
HexTOOL® machinable composite tooling material offers a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) matched to carbon fibre components — eliminating thermal mismatch distortion during cure and delivering consistently accurate parts, batch after batch.
The system can be machined, drilled, and repaired with conventional shop tooling, significantly reducing the cost and lead time versus metal tooling alternatives.
Available in standard sheet and block forms — custom geometries on request.
Where It's Used
Hexcel material systems are specified across primary and secondary structures for commercial aviation, defense platforms, and space launch vehicles.
HexPly® prepregs used in primary wing structures for commercial and business aircraft, delivering high stiffness-to-weight ratios with excellent fatigue resistance.
Toughened prepreg systems qualified for fuselage skin panels and frame structures, meeting damage tolerance requirements for primary structure certification.
High-temperature prepreg systems for engine inlet lips, fan cowls, and thrust reversers, with outstanding resistance to jet fuel and hydraulic fluids.
Ailerons, elevators, rudders, and spoilers manufactured from Hexcel prepregs and adhesives — combining light weight with the stiffness needed for aerodynamic precision.
Prepregs and tooling materials used in satellite structures, launch vehicle fairings, and payload adapters — where minimal mass and maximum reliability are non-negotiable.
