Dry vs Wet Carbon

Carbon fiber isn’t all the same. The difference between dry and wet carbon comes down to how it’s made — and that directly affects weight, strength, and finish.


Wet Carbon


Wet carbon is produced by laying carbon fiber and manually applying resin. It’s more common and less expensive, but it has tradeoffs.
 • Heavier due to excess resin
 • Inconsistent weave clarity
 • More prone to imperfections
 • Lower strength-to-weight ratio


Wet carbon can look good at first, but over time fitment and finish often suffer.


Dry Carbon


Dry carbon uses pre-impregnated carbon fiber and controlled curing processes.
 • Lighter and stronger
 • Consistent weave and finish
 • Higher structural integrity
 • Better long-term durability


This process takes more time and precision, but the result is a part that fits better, weighs less, and lasts longer.


What Korza Uses


Korza focuses on dry carbon construction for parts where weight, fitment, and finish matter most. Every design choice is made to balance performance, durability, and real-world usability.
