Carbon Fiber Tube OD 14 Id 12 Length 1000MM

Product Description

A carbon fiber tube is a cylindrical structure made from carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP). It is known for being: LightweightCarbon fiber is much lighter than metals like steel or aluminum, which makes it ideal for aerospace, automotive, sports equipment, and robotics.Strong and StiffDespite its low weight, carbon fiber has very high tensile strength and rigidity, often outperforming metal tubes in similar applications.Corrosion-ResistantUnlike metal, carbon fiber does not rust or corrode, making it suitable for use in harsh environments.Common Types of Carbon Fiber Tubes: Roll-Wrapped Tubes Made by wrapping carbon fiber fabric around a mandrel and curing it. High strength in multiple directions. Used in drones, camera rigs, RC vehicles, etc. Pultruded Tubes Made by pulling carbon fibers through resin and a heated die. Very strong along the length but not in other directions. Used in structural applications where bending isnt a concern. Wound Tubes (Filament-Wound) Continuous strands are wound onto a mandrel at specific angles. Excellent for pressure vessels and torsional loads. Typical Applications: Aerospace and Aviation (lightweight structural parts) RC Vehicles and Drones Camera Sliders and Gimbals Robotics and Automation Sporting Goods (bike frames, paddles, arrows) Medical Devices (prosthetics, surgical instruments) Common Sizes: Available in a range of diameters (5 mm to 100+ mm) and wall thicknesses (0.5 mm to several mm). You can buy them as round, square, or custom-profile tubes.Where to Buy: Online retailers: e.g., DragonPlate, Rock West Composites, HobbyKing, Amazon Industrial suppliers: McMaster-Carr, Alibaba, Toray, etc. Would you like help finding a specific size or supplier for your project?
