    • This removes the outer cello wrap gloss finish.
    • Sand outer diameter to specified thickness.
    • Patterns will likely distort in appearance

If you are requesting bulk discounts, cutting, or standard sanding services only, we will send you a cart with your product selections. You may enter your shipping information and purchase directly at that time. Please note, the cart will not allow edits to the quote. Any changes will have to be completed by our team. If we do not have enough information to complete your quote we will reach out to you directly. If you are requesting additional services or custom sanding, a team member will reach out to you to finalize a quote.

If you request a custom length you will be charged for a full length item (or items if more than 1 is needed to meet your request) plus a cutting fee. You will then be shipped the item sized to your specification and any remaining length of the orginal item (drops). Sanding also incurs a fee which will be included in the quote. All items that have been sanded or cut may not be returned.

Introducing extreme. Rock West's ultra high modulus tubing utilizes pitch based carbon fibers in the 0 degree orientation to yield the stiffest composite tube yet. Our 0.437"ID x 0.625" OD ultra high modulus tubing lineup is designated generally by using an outer layer of a 1k plain weave fabric.

0.437" ID Round Roll Wrapped Ultra High Modulus Tubing Facts

  • 0.437" ID x 0.507" OD x 72" Long
  • Gloss Finish
  • 94 msi Unidirectional carbon fiber throughout with a
  • 1k Plain weave outer woven layer for increased performance when machining and hole drilling
  • Can easily be trimmed into shorter lengths for your complete build

Features & Benefits

Fabric roll wrapped tubing offers many benefits over uni-directional and even filament wound tubing. That isn't to say it is the best however. Here are a few reasons you may wish to consider fabric roll wrapped tubing for your application.

  • Superior machine ability 
  • Much better durability by reducing the potential extent of fiber breakout if drilled, machined or damaged
  • Typical aesthetic associated with carbon fiber products
  • Most "fabric" tubes contain a majority 0° plies in the layup allowing for the most effective bending load support. (whereas filament wound tubes cannot achieve angles less than ~7°

  • 0° fibers maximize bending stiffness and run along the length of the part. Consider bending a tube over your knee.
  • 45° fibers maximize torsional stiffness and are typically plied together in an opposing manner, i.e. ±45°. Consider twisting a tube like a vehicle's driveshaft.
  • 90° (or "hoop") fibers maximize crushing stiffness and generally assist in overall durability. Consider laying a tube on the ground and stepping on it.
