Strong Rigid Tube Roll Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tube Twill Weave Gloss Finish – 48″Long

Product Description

Strong Rigid Tube Roll Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tube Twill Weave Gloss Finish – 48″Long
 

Roll Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tube Twill Weave Gloss Finish 48″ long – Measurements come in at x 1220mm/48″ in length. This carbon fiber tube uses high high-strength unidirectional T-700 equivalent carbon fiber core with an epoxy resin system to ensure a strong rigid tube that will meet your needs. In addition to this high-strength uni core this tube is finished with a beautiful 2×2 twill weave carbon fiber and then given a gloss finish. Due to raw material constraints, it is hard to create pipes exactly at a specific measurement unless they are built over-sized and machined down so that is why our pipes may be a few thousandths off from the ideal measurement we are trying to match.

Roll wrapped carbon fiber tubes are high-performance composite tubes known for their superior strength, lightweight properties, and high-quality surface finish. The roll wrapping process allows for precise control over the fiber orientation and resin content, resulting in tubes with exceptional mechanical properties.

Description

1. Material Composition:

Carbon Fiber Fabric: High-tensile carbon fibers woven into various patterns (e.g., unidirectional, bidirectional, twill).
Epoxy Resin: A durable resin that binds the carbon fibers together and enhances the tube's structural integrity.

2. Manufacturing Process:

Roll Wrapping:

Mandrel Preparation: A mandrel (a cylindrical mold) is prepared to the desired internal diameter of the tube.

Layering: Layers of carbon fiber fabric pre-impregnated with epoxy resin (prepreg) are carefully rolled onto the mandrel. The fiber orientation can be precisely controlled to meet specific strength and stiffness requirements.

Curing: The wrapped mandrel is placed in an oven or autoclave where it is heated to cure the resin. This step solidifies the structure and ensures a strong bond between the fibers and the resin.

Extraction: Once cured, the tube is removed from the mandrel and cut to the desired length.
