Since 2008, Goodwinds Composites has offered solid carbon rods that are both affordable and extremely durable for demanding environments. Using the finest carbon fiber and composite materials available, we fabricate solid carbon rods of up to 5,000' in continuous length. Round carbon rods are available in a variety of diameters as small as 0.020” and as large as 0.750", while flat carbon rods are available as small as 0.105" x 0.035" to 0.787" x 0.196".

Goodwinds Composites has no minimum orders, so our solid round and flat carbon rods are excellent for experimentation and prototyping. We will custom cut to a specified length within 0.005" on our state of the art composite saws.

In order to support the customer across all phases of the manufacturing process, we offer secondary services such as milling, drilling, grinding, chamfering, and sanding. Our entire staff, from machinist to CEO, adheres to a Kaizen workplace philosophy and takes part in process improvement training. We treat every project, regardless of size, with the same degree of workmanship and attention to quality. Every job undergoes an extensive quality control process prior to shipment.

We field trained composite engineers that strive for quality and go out of their way to find a solution that best fits the customer's application needs. We're able to satisfy both retail and wholesale program requirements, supporting either bulk jobs or small, one-time orders.
