Tube - Round - INFINITubeV - High Modulus - Plain Weave - Size 15 - 2.125 X 2.231 X 74 Inch
High Performance ◾ 2.125" x 2.231" x 74"
The higher the number the better, right? Unless you're golfing that's probably true. Composite materials offer incredible benefits when compared to metals but don't forget, there is a time and a place for each. So let us help you decide! Our high modulus carbon fiber tube is 50% stiffer than standard carbon fiber tubes. High modulus carbon fiber provides excellent thermal conductivity and stability. Our high modulus tubes typically employ 0° & 90° plies throughout the ply sequence / laminate orientation.

INFINITubeV high modulus tubing is manufactured for use with compression ring clamps, button clips, push button ball lock pins, or you can design your own.
INFINITubeV High Modulus Tubing Quick Facts
- Very stiff - Good thermal conductivity / stability.
- Gloss finish, can be sanded to remove gloss. Option available in customization box.
- Huge diameter range so you can hop on or off anywhere in the spectrum.
- Use UHMW low friction tape to maintain snug fit.
- UHMW tape can be used to prevent tubes from pulling apart at full extension
- All INFINITubeV tubes (part #'s 464xx) have an ultra thin woven fiberglass inner layer to maintain superior machine-ability for hole drilling (if using button clips or locking pins) or slot cutting
- Great for machining - Fabric inner and outer plies minimize "breakout" typically associated with drilling into composites

- 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.
