Hey all, first id like to say sorry for the typo in the title lol OPINION**  anyways, I need help with a few things, I am manufacturing Carbon fiber parts for the honda CBR600rr and my customers continue asking me to make these complex parts and I hate turning money away. So here it goes.

One is a small corner piece with awkard tabs for mounting it:


 



 

 



 

 

The second issue I am having is how to fabricat the interior of the stator cover. It will be holding hot oil too so it has to be durable.


 



 

 

Lastly I would like advice on what to use as an alternative to the factory's injected screw threads I guess you can call them. They are basically the threads on the back of the fairings/body panels that your small screws go into ..idk how else to explain it and cant find a picture online anywhere.

Thanks in advance!

I think you will have to break this down in sub assemblies and bond them together. Good luck on the stator plate. Have you considered skinning the stator plate in carbon fiber. The only way I can think of producing that part is with the new carbon fiber technic of "Carbon Fiber forging"

Big big bucks needing matched metal dies and a huge multi ton press. It would also have to be heated and cooled. Some aircraft propellor hubs are made this way which out perform aluminium in strength and are lighter in weight.

Just a thought about the thread issue, have you thought about using rivinuts, I use these quite a lot when putting theads into sheet metal or where you can't get get behind the item with a spanner, you can buy rivinut kits from ebay quite cheaply?

Just a thought.
