Carbonfiber Tube Outside Diameter 6

Product Description:

New to Fibermak Composites’ selection of high performance carbon fibre tubes is our range of 3K Woven Finish tubes which have a stunning high-gloss woven carbon fibre finish to complement their incredible strength.

With the classic appearance of 2/2 twill carbon fibre coupled with 100% roll-wrapped prepreg carbon fibre construction, these remarkable tubes look as good as they perform.

Appearance

This 3K Woven Finish tube is manufactured from alternating layers of unidirectional prepreg carbon fibre for maximum strength with the final layer swapped for 2/2 twill, 3k woven carbon fibre so that the tube has the classic appearance of woven carbon fibre (exactly the same as our carbon fibre sheets for example). This means that although the tubes are designed for demanding mechanical applications, they also look fantastic, adding a cutting-edge carbon fibre appearance to any application.

To achieve the smooth, glossy appearance the tubes are surface ground, lacquered (with high-gloss UV resistant lacquer) and then polished. The end result is a carbon fibre tube of unrivalled visual appearance making it ideally suited for use in applications where it will be seen.

Performance

Although specially laminated, ground, lacquered and polished to produce a carbon fibre tube with a stunning appearance, our 3K Woven Finish tubes are serious tubes suitable for demanding engineering applications including robotics/automation, R/C models, UAVs, recreational equipment, motorsport and marine.

Size

The tube listed on this page has an outside diameter of 6mm and an inside diameter of 4mm meaning it has a wall thickness of 1mm. The tube is 1m (1000mm-6000) long.

This very small diameter tube is ideally suited to small scale applications such as radio controlled models, UAVs and robotics. 6mm(4mm) is near to the limit of how small as it’s possible to go with the roll wrapping process.
