Custom Composite Tube 3K Roll-Wrapped 10MM Carbon Fibre Tube
 

Roll wrapped carbon fiber tubes are universally strong and can tolerate all forces equally. Unlike pultruded tubes they can withstand twist (torque) force, compression, tension and deflection without splitting. This is because the fibres have been wound around the diameter of the tube as well as running length ways. First the tube mandrel is wound with unidirectional carbon fibre around the diameter, then it is wrapped with the fibres running the length (longitudinally), finally it is finished with a wrap of 3K twill before it is cured in an autoclave, roll sanded and recoated with epoxy.

Carbon fibre tubes can be used to replace aluminium or steel tubes in a wide range of projects. The Carbon fibre tube of the same weight as an aluminum or steel tube can be much stronger and lighter. This roll-wrapped carbon fibre tube is manufactured predominantly using high modulus (T700) unidirectional prepreg carbon fibre oriented to provide maximum strength in the lateral axis.

Roll-wrapped carbon fibre tubes offer superior strength in general use to pultruded tubes (which have all their fibres running in exactly the same direction.

The use of unidirectional fibres and maximum strength in the lateral axis does mean that the tube is not strong across its diameter as it is along its length so should be used in such a way as to avoid unnecessary crushing forces across the tube.

Roll Wrapping:

The phrase roll wrapped refers to the process used to manufacture these tubes. The prepreg carbon fibre is first laid up around a mandrel in multiple layers. Once the reinforcement is in place it is spiral-wrapped with heat-shrink tape before the whole assembly is oven cured.
