14x12x1000mm 3K CF Tube Carbon Fiber / Fibre Tube 3K Roll Wrapped

3K High-Performance carbon fibre tubes is our range of 3K Woven Finish tubes which have a stunning high-gloss / Matte 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.

This tube is ideally suited to a wide range of applications such as radio-controlled models (RC Planes), UAVs, Drones, Multicopters, recreational equipment, sporting goods, robotics and photography/video equipment (tripods etc.).

Different from Pultruded carbon fibre tubes, a roll-wrapped tube is lighter in weight, stiffer and stronger. It is widely used for many projects in sports, RC, robots, etc. by hobbyists for surface protection. 3K Carbon fibre tube with high strength, stiffness, and excellent load-bearing performance.

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. 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.

What are carbon fiber tubes made of?

Large diameter carbon fiber tubes are typically constructed using rolled bi-directional woven carbon fiber. By combining the right fiber, fiber orientation, and fabrication process, carbon fiber tubes can be created with the proper characteristics for any application.

How strong is carbon fiber pipe?

Strength, Stiffness, and Comparisons With Other Materials

The modulus of carbon fiber is typically 33 msi (228 GPa) and its ultimate tensile strength is typically 500 ksi (3.5 Gpa).
