Carbon fiber reinforced epoxy composites are having greater acceptance in industries as well as for researches and engineers due to the inherent properties. In this paper the change in mechanical properties like tensile strength and hardness are studied by changing the percentage composition of carbon by 30%, 35% and 45% in the carbon epoxy composite. Composite is manufactured by vacuum suction method.
