Industrial Braided 3K Round Carbon Fiber Tube For Sports Equipment

SGS Certificated Light Weight Industrial Braided Round Carbon Fiber Tube

Braided Carbon Fiber Round Tubes

The traditional Carbon Fiber look -- the fabric "money layer" makes these tubes ideal for aesthetic applications. Fabric tubing has all the structural qualities of unidirectional tubing with an outer woven fabric decorative layer. Also, the carbon fabric outer layer helps minimize fraying and splintering during cutting and/or drilling operations.

Made of carbon fiber, these are the strongest composite round tubes we offer. Carbon fiber is comparable in strength to 6061 aluminum yet lighter in weight. These round tubes are often used to build frames and structures.

Plain tubes have a 0° construction layup, which means their fibers are aligned in a single direction for linear strength and rigidity. They resist bending but will crush easily if impacted. They’re often used to support structures.

Checked tubes have a 0°/90° construction layup, which means their fibers are aligned in two directions to resist crushing and twisting better than plain tubes. Their checked appearance is the most common design for carbon fiber.

Glossy tubes reflect light and can be modified with a clear coat or sanded down for a matte finish.

Matte tubes don’t reflect light and can be painted without any prep work. They’re often used in photography applications.

High precision lightweight carbon tube with a “twill” fabric outer layer and a precisely polished outside diameter with a tolerance of +/- 0.1 mm. The material structure ensures the tube has optimal strength and stiffness, and low weight. Available in lengths of 1000 and 2000 mm.

These tubes deliver the same technical performance as the High-Performance tubes.

The carbon tubes are used for Lightweight precision frames for machine building. Arms and robot grippers and various fast-moving product handling systems, UAV’s and drones, lightweight constructions, tube connections for model building, precision instruments and medical equipment, and more.

The carbon tubes can be cut to size on request. We can also provide post-processing services such as drilling and CNC milling.

We offer many composite tubing varieties if this tube does not meet your needs. We offer pultruded materials in a round solid bar, pipe, and square bar/tubing. We also stock roll wrapped tubes in 2x2 Twill and Plain weave styles with a both matte and high gloss finish to give that stunning visual appearance your consumer products need. Upon special order, all of our unique fabrics can be converted into piping.
