Small Tolerance Range Medium Diameter Structural Carbon Fibre Tube
 

Our carbon fiber tubes are convolute wrapped ("roll wrapped", similar to the way G-10 tubes are made) using actual aerospace quality carbon fiber cloth. The cloth we use is a very tight 3k 8 harness satin weave common in aerospace applications. Fiber orientation is 0/90 degrees and has a fiber/resin ratio of 60/40% by weight (40% resin content). The laminate is cured under pressure and at temperatures of over 250 degrees F. Once cured, the tubes are fine sanded and nearly ready for paint. Appropriate primers and prep will be required.

Great for reinforcing wings and tails, these hollow carbon fiber tubes can be used as additional spars. If you do not want to create an extra channel in your wing, they can also be inserted into your main spar for extra reinforcement. Just make sure they are a snug fit.

This 3K Woven Finish tube is manufactured from alternating layers of unidirectional prepreg carbon fibre for maximum strength with the final layer swapped for 2/2 twill, 3k woven carbon fibre so that the tube has the classic appearance of woven carbon fibre (exactly the same as our carbon fibre sheets for example). This means that although the tubes are designed for demanding mechanical applications, they also look fantastic, adding a cutting-edge carbon fibre appearance to any application.

To achieve the smooth, glossy appearance the tubes are surface ground, lacquered (with high-gloss UV resistant lacquer) and then polished. The end result is a carbon fibre tube of unrivalled visual appearance making it ideally suited for use in applications where it will be seen.
