Ultra Light 3K Twill Matte Carbon Fiber Tube Fatigue Resistance

Custom-Made Ultra Light 3K Twill Matte 100% Carbon Fiber Tube Pipe

Carbon Fiber Tube Pipe Description:

SHANGHAI LIJIN offers a wide range of carbon fiber tubes for many different applications. Our tubes are manufactured by us here in China, giving us complete control over the characteristics and quality.

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
• Excellent resistance to fatigue
• Dimensional stability: Low CTE (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion)
• Resistance to corrosion
• X-Ray transparency
• Chemical resistivity

​Roll Wrapped Prepreg Carbon Fiber Tubes

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. Additionally, the longer-length versions of these tubes have options for high and ultra high modulus carbon fiber, as well as choices for outer fabrics, such as colored Kevlar fabrics. The standard finish is cello-wrapped gloss, but a smooth sanded finish is also available.

Large Diameter Carbon Fiber Tubes

Our large diameter carbon fiber tubes are comprised of rolled bi-directional woven carbon fiber. This tubing is designed for large applications, such as telescope projects or lightweight drums. Our carbon fiber large tubes come with a texture finish on both the inside and outside for easy bonding and painting.

How do buy carbon fiber tubes from us?

If you want to buy a carbon fiber tube, please include ID, OD, length, dimensional tolerances, quantity, structural requirements, surface finish, surface pattern, material (if you know), temperature requirements, processing technology, etc. According to these points, we can easily and quickly quote you the price.

1. How is the diameter of your tubes measured?
Except for pultruded tubes (diameter measured from outside), all DragonPlate tube diameters are measured from the inside of the tube (ID). To determine the approximate outside diameter, add 2x the wall thickness to the ID measurement.

2. What finish options do you offer for your tubes?
Finish options include gloss, natural, textured, and tooled, depending on tube type. Please see each tube type for finish options. We also offer a sanded finish upon request. Contact us for more details.

3. How do you recommend cutting DragonPlate carbon fiber tubes? Is there any safety gear that I should use?
DragonPlate carbon fiber tubes are pre-cut to the specified lengths or slightly oversized. The tubes are easily cut to length using a bandsaw, coping saw, or Dremel tool. Recommended precautions include wearing safety glasses, a dust respirator, and protective clothing when cutting, sanding or drilling, to limit exposure to the dust, which is an irritant.

4. Do you offer custom cutting of your carbon fiber tubes?
Yes! We can custom cut our carbon fiber tubes to your specified length. Contact us for details.
