Tube - Rectangle - Fabric - 2.00 x 4.00 - 2.175 x 4.220 Inch

Unlike metals which have similar properties in all directions (isotropic), the properties of composites are varying, dependent on the orientation of the fibers in each layer. This particular carbon fiber fabric rectangle tube has an internal diameter (ID) of 2.0" x 4.0" (flat to flat) and an outer diameter (OD) of 2.175" x 4.22" (flat to flat). The outer ply of material on this tube is a 2x2 twill weave (diagonal appearance seen below) which will prevent fiber breakout better than unidirectional material. Thus, fabric tubes provide an ideal surface for machining. The core of this tube is almost always comprised of multi-directional "uni" plies which makes most carbon fiber fabric & unidirectional tubes ideal for bending and compression applications.
