Support for record attempt

The company became involved in the project due to the extensive use of carbon fibre in the construction of the car, leading to an ongoing requirement for effective dust extraction.

Bloodhound SSC will be using AirBench FN189784H, a heavy duty downdraught bench designed for capture of carbon fibre dusts. AirBench says it currently supplies downdraught benches to every UK-based  F1 team, along with a huge range of other race teams and automotive suppliers.

Both AirBench and Bloodhound SSC will be exhibiting at the Composites Exhibition in November at the NEC.
