Void of compromise and full of intense performance! Rock West's high modulus tubing utilizes high modulus (55 Msi) fibers with a strength of 640 ksi. This combination yields an astounding product comprised of a multi-directional layup of only high modulus fibers with a higher temperature resin system. Our high modulus tubing lineup is generally designated by using an outer layer of a 3k plain weave fabric.
*This value varies depending on the specific layup orientation, tube diameters and shape. Representing a theoretical modulus assigned to a general composite round tube (not the fiber alone)
