Default Is Carbon-Fiber Cloth Conductive?

Hey this is kind of a simple question...I need to know if Carbon-Fiber cloth is conductive. I know in theory it should be, but are there some kinds that aren't? A website I can order some (conductive) from would be great. Maybe someplace like McMasterCarr. I would think the majority of it is (I tested some Carbon-fiber wrapped arrows I have and they are about 80 ohms / inch.) I'm just afraid I'll get some with a manufacturing process that isn't.

Default Re: Is Carbon-Fiber Cloth Conductive?

The only thing that would make carbon fiber non-conductive would be a coating, I'm suprised your arrow shfts showed such a low resistance, the fibers must protrude above the epoxy matrix.
