One of the most renowned companies of the prestigious hero group, Rockman is the name that is synonymous to the producer of the best auto parts. It is known for manufacturing the original parts for the automobiles, specially the two wheelers. Started as a bicycle chain manufacturing company in 1960, it has grown and evolved into the most prominent manufacturer of all the parts for a range of automobiles, scoring the biggest national and international brands as its clients. Rockman has provided the best possible resources for the national progress by manufacturing items that suit the best for Indian needs, first it was bicycle, then two wheeler parts, that still dominate the market, four wheelers, and now with stepping into the carbon composite industry, Rockman is aiming for the skies above.

Rockman has become the proud manufacturer of the carbon composites by acquiring major shares of Moldex composites, which was already into the research, development and manufacturing of the carbon composites. By getting the steady back up from Rockman, Moldex Composites has got extra boost for the better production and development of lighter, stronger and more malleable carbon composite fibres. These carbon fibres are used in the formula 1 cars, aeroplanes and in space craft’s when moulded into various forms. The carbon composites are made by using the carbon fibre reinforcement in the plastics as well, making them stiff and strong.

Carbon composites have unique properties that include directional strength, resistance to fire, water, heat and harsh chemicals, very light weight and ability to be moulded with the required amount of flexibility. They can be as strong as a metal sheet and can be moulded like a cloth, as per the demand of the place where they are going to be used. Different carbon composites find their applications in the heavy duty work fields, like defence and warfare, aerospace engineering, automobile engineering, structural engineering, carbon fibre electrodes, motorsports, wind energy, medical industry, and sports goods. Specialized composites are used in each of these fields and are designed to have the best properties for the same.

Aerospace composites, for example, find their use in commercial aircraft, military craft, helicopters, business jets, general aviation aircraft and space crafts. Rockman Industries manufactures many different types of carbon composites, and also offers customised carbon composites according to the demand of the clients. fibre reinforced plastics (FRP) are the most common composites in which the laminates are made to order by choosing from a wide array of carbon fibres of different strengths or other fibres like Aramid (Kevlar), E- and S- glass, Zylon (PBO) Dyneema/Spectra (HDPE) and Boron. The expert team of Rockman also suggests the improvement in the composites, bringing the innovation for better products.
