High Performance Durable Roll-Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tubing for Many Applications

Roll-wrapped prepreg carbon fiber tubes are constructed using multiple wraps of twill and/or unidirectional fabrics. Rolled tubes are ideal for applications that require the highest bending stiffness and lowest weight, such as automation robotics, telescoping poles, idler rollers, and UAV components. The standard finish is cello-wrapped gloss, but a smooth sanded finish is also available.

Key Characteristics of Carbon Fiber Tubes:

• Lightweight: Carbon fiber tubing is much lighter than metals like steel and aluminum while providing similar or greater strength.
• High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: It offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for applications where reducing weight is critical without compromising strength.
• Stiffness and Rigidity: Carbon fiber tubing has a high modulus of elasticity, ensuring rigidity and resistance to bending and deformation.
• Corrosion Resistance: Unlike metals, carbon fiber does not corrode, making it suitable for harsh environments.
• Fatigue Resistance: Carbon fiber tubes can withstand repeated loading and unloading cycles without significant degradation.
• Thermal Stability: They have low thermal expansion coefficients and maintain dimensional stability across a range of temperatures.

Applications

• Aerospace: Used in aircraft structures, UAVs, satellite components, and space exploration equipment.
• Automotive: Employed in high-performance car parts, roll cages, drive shafts, and body panels.
• Sports Equipment: Found in bicycles, fishing rods, golf clubs, archery equipment, and more.
• Robotics and Automation: Utilized in robotic arms, frames, and other lightweight yet strong structures.
• Medical Devices: Applied in prosthetics, orthotics, surgical instruments, and imaging equipment.
• Construction: Used in reinforcing bars, structural supports, and high-strength beams.

What are carbon fiber tubes used for?

Carbon fiber tubes are used in a wide range of applications, including tactical ladders, systems, rods, and beams. Carbon fiber provides low weight, and better mechanical properties over conventional materials like aluminum, and steel.

Are carbon fiber tubes strong?

Carbon fiber tubes are used in numerous applications like tactical ladders, trusses, beams, and more. Carbon fiber is typically chosen over traditional materials such as aluminum, steel, and titanium because of the following properties: High strength and stiffness to weight.

Do carbon fiber tubes bend?

Our carbon fiber tubing is built using a thermoset epoxy resin. This means that once cured the epoxy never returns to a liquid state. If you tried to bend our tubing it would break with enough applied force but it will not bend. Carbon fiber/epoxy composite is very stiff!
