Product Description

Matt Surface 100% 3K Roll Wrapped Carbon Fiber Tube 23 x 25 x 500mm

Carbon fiber has become one of the most advanced materials in today’s engineering world, valued for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and modern, high-tech appearance. Among its many forms, the 100% carbon fiber tube stands out as a premium structural component widely used across aerospace, robotics, sports equipment, and industrial applications.

What is a 100% Carbon Fiber Tube?

A 100% carbon fiber tube is a lightweight composite tube manufactured entirely from carbon fiber reinforcement and epoxy resin—without any fiberglass or mixed materials. Compared with hybrid tubes, pure carbon fiber tubing delivers significantly higher stiffness, lower weight, and superior durability.

These tubes are typically produced through advanced processes such as roll-wrapping, pull-winding, or pultrusion, each offering different performance levels depending on the application.

Our Carbon Fiber Tube is engineered for high strength and low weight, making it ideal for a variety of applications. Manufactured from premium-grade carbon fiber, these tubes provide superior stiffness and resistance to wear, ensuring durability in demanding environments. Whether you're into robotics, drone building, or structural applications, this carbon fiber tube delivers outstanding performance with precision and reliability.

Carbon fibre tube can be used to replace aluminium or steel tubes in a wide range of projects. The Carbon fibre tube of the same weight as an aluminium or steel tube can be much stronger and lighter. This 16mm roll wrapped carbon fibre tube is manufactured predominantly using high modulus (T700) unidirectional prepreg carbon fibre oriented to provide maximum strength in the lateral axis.

The use of unidirectional fibres and maximum strength in the lateral axis does mean that the tube is not strong across its diameter as it is along its length so should be used in such a way as to avoid unnecessary crushing forces across the tube.

The prepreg carbon fibre is first laid up around a mandrel in multiple layers. Once the reinforcement is in place it is spiral-wrapped with heat-shrink tape before the whole assembly is oven cured.

Key Advantages of 100% Carbon Fiber Tubes

1. Ultra-High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Pure carbon fiber provides exceptional tensile and bending strength while remaining extremely light. This makes the tubes ideal for applications where weight reduction directly improves performance—such as drones, sports gear, and UAV arms.

2. Excellent Stiffness and Dimensional Stability: Carbon fiber tubes maintain rigidity even under heavy loads or high-speed motion. They resist deformation, making them suitable for precision machinery, camera stabilizers, and robotic systems.

3. Corrosion and Fatigue Resistance: Unlike metal tubes, carbon fiber will not rust or corrode. It also withstands long-term dynamic stress without fatigue, extending the service life of the entire structure.

4. Professional Appearance: The signature 3K carbon fiber weave provides a sleek, modern aesthetic. Many industries choose carbon fiber not only for performance but also for its high-end appearance.

5. Vibration Dampening: Carbon fiber naturally absorbs vibration and reduces oscillation, improving stability for camera equipment, drone frames, and mechanical arms.
