Carbon Fiber Toilet Seats

Carbon Fiber Gear Created a Durable Carbon Fiber Toilet Seat

— April 7, 2014 — Art & Design
Carbon Fiber Gear is a company that creates lifestyle products with or out of carbon fiber. Carbon fiber has a ton of practical uses; it makes cars lighter, hockey sticks stronger, laptop cases flashier -- and toilet seats cooler.

Give your favorite seat in the bathroom a makeover with a carbon fiber toilet seat. It'll stand up to whatever you can throw at it. It's an overly strong, durable design that is sure to last longer than any wooden or plastic toilet seat. It's light, clean and comfy -- a perfect way to splurge on your bathroom.

The toilet seat is made from 550,000 psi tensile carbon fiber that is applied around a foam core. The carbon fiber toilet seat features a 2 x 2 twill pattern that makes the seat look beautiful. It only weights two pounds and the inherent black color of the seat is easy to keep it looking clean.
