Tube - Tapered OD - Standard Modulus - 2x2 Twill Weave - 1.188 X 1.260 to 1.392 X 83.5 IN
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 tube is constructed utilizing multi-directional "uni" plies. This makes for a true workhorse of a tube with no frills. This tube is great for bending and compression applications however if you suspect this tube will be subject to general abuse in terms of abrasion / rocks etc. we would recommend you seek a fabric wrapped tube instead.
Features & Benefits
Roll wrapped tubing is manufactured using multiple layers of prepreg carbon fiber (and if noted, other) materials. In general each layer is about 0.006 inches thick which means that a tube with a wall thickness of 0.060 inches will typically be composed of 9-10 individual layers of carbon fiber. The number of layers (plys) allows us to vary the orientation of the fibers throughout the thickness, creating a high performance, engineered product.
