3K Roll Wrapped 100% Carbon Fiber Tube Glossy Surface 80MM Carbon
Fiber Tube
Carbon fiber has the best combination of high strength, high stiffness, and lightweight. Our carbon fiber tube is as strong as steel, as stiff as aluminum, and lighter than titanium. Carbon fiber tubes can replace metal tubes in many applications. We offer a wide range of tubes to fit your needs.

Carbon Fiber Tube Specifications:
We have been engaged in the production of fiber materials for more
than 20 years and have a strong engineering team. We will formulate
complete solutions for customers from multiple perspectives such as
product transportation, installation, maintenance, and
cost-effectiveness according to the use conditions and performance
requirements of the products.
Carbon Fiber Tube Manufacturing Process :
4-Axis braiding is a process in which we braid carbon fibers over a
mandrel. The braiding machine stays in one place and an aluminum
mandrel traverses inside of the braiding hoop. The layer of braid
is then wet-out with epoxy resin at a 2nd stage in the machine. The
laminate is then consolidated and cured at 280F.
Braided composite structures offer extreme durability and toughness
due to the interlocking fibers and no seams.
If damage does occur, it does not tend to propagate within the
structure.
Typically braided carbon tubes have approximately 75% of fibers
directly on the axis of the tube. These fibers are continuous
fibers from one end of the part to the other. 10 % of the fibers
are +/- 45 deg and around 15% are 90 deg (hoop)
We can make some adjustments to the percentages of fiber
orientation; however, it is not possible to get high percentages of
+/- 45 deg.
The inherent high percentage of fiber on the 0 axis makes a braided
tube a very good compression or bending tube.
Because the machine stays in one place and the mandrel traverses,
there is no length limitation to the parts that can be built (the
building length, oven length, and mandrel lengths are limiting
factors, but the process itself is not limited).
We typically braid longer length parts or larger manufacturing runs
compared to pre-preg
Braided carbon fiber tubes tend to have more surface ripples and
small voids in the laminate. This is not a structural issue but it
can be a cosmetic issue and it may have an effect on the OD
tolerance of the part.
Examples of some applications for braided tubing
Communications towers, large antenna assemblies, portable antennas,
drone wing spars, aircraft structural tubing, sailboat spars, truss
tubing, reinforcing tubes, spacer tubes, stiffening tubes,
compression struts, GPS towers, high tension cable struts, awning
support tubes, structural beams, low interference towers.
