Sports & Lightweight Composite Applications
For high-end sports equipment and lightweight consumer products, LANTAI focuses on carbon fiber prepreg, with fiberglass prepreg available as a complementary option. These materials offer low weight, high rigidity, high strength, good toughness, and impact resistance for bicycle frames and saddles, rackets, carbon fiber fishing rods, golf clubs, archery components, police protective shields, professional protective equipment, carbon fiber luggage, and other high-performance lightweight products.(Material requirements vary significantly across sports and lightweight products. Bicycle frames and golf clubs place more emphasis on stiffness, weight, and fatigue performance; fishing rods and rackets need to balance sensitivity, rebound, and toughness; protective shields and gear focus more on impact resistance, structural strength, and portability. LANTAI can discuss fiber type, resin system, modulus, strength, toughness, and layup direction based on the target product, structure, and use conditions.)
From material selection and prepreg system matching to sample validation and stable supply, LANTAI can support customers throughout product development. For projects with defined targets for weight, stiffness, strength, appearance, or processing, material direction can be reviewed against samples, drawings, and target parameters during the early development stage.

Bicycle Frames
Carbon fiber prepreg is suitable for premium road, mountain, and other lightweight bicycle frames, helping reduce weight while improving overall stiffness and ride response.

Tennis / Badminton / Pickleball Rackets
Suitable for tennis, badminton, pickleball, and other rackets, where material and layup design can balance stiffness, rebound, weight, and feel.

Carbon Fiber Fishing Rods & Golf Clubs
Suitable for fishing rods and related tubular structures requiring low weight, high sensitivity, strength, and fatigue resistance.
Can be used in golf club shafts and related composite parts, with material direction and layup design controlling weight, stiffness, and impact feedback.

Professional Protective Equipment
Suitable for helmet shells, protective panels, protective gear structures, and other equipment requiring low weight and impact resistance.

Carbon Fiber Luggage
Suitable for premium luggage shells and structural parts, combining low weight, rigidity, durability, and a distinctive carbon fiber appearance.

Other Lightweight Components
Can be applied to additional sports, outdoor, portable, and other products requiring lightweight and high-performance composite structures.
Key Application Requirements
Lightweight & High Rigidity
High-end sports equipment is highly sensitive to weight. Bicycle frames, rackets, fishing rods, golf clubs, and similar products need to reduce weight while maintaining sufficient rigidity and structural strength to improve handling, response, and overall user experience.
Strength, Toughness & Impact Resistance
Different sports products experience different loading and impact conditions, requiring a balanced combination of strength, toughness, and impact resistance. Rackets, fishing rods, and protective equipment, for example, place very different demands on material response.
Fatigue Performance & Long-Term Stability
Bicycle frames, fishing rods, golf clubs, and rackets are repeatedly exposed to bending, impact, and vibration, making fatigue resistance and long-term stability important material requirements.
Tunable Performance & Product Differentiation
Different brands and products have different requirements for modulus, weight, rebound, toughness, and feel, so performance needs to be tuned through fiber selection, resin system, and layup design.
