100% 3K Carbon Fiber Tube - Twill Weave - 1/2" ID x 5/8" OD x 3 ft. Long

Carbon fiber is powerful and lightweight. Woven carbon fiber features fibers that interlace from two different directions, making it ideal for applications where loads come from all directions.

This carbon fiber tube uses high-strength unidirectional T-700 equivalent carbon fiber core with an epoxy resin system to ensure a strong, rigid tube that will meet your needs. In addition to this high-strength uni core, this tube is finished with a beautiful 2×2 twill weave carbon fiber and then given a gloss finish. Due to raw material constraints, it is hard to create pipes exactly at a specific measurement unless they are built oversized and machined down so which is why our pipes may be a few thousandths off from our ideal measurement we are trying to match.

We offer many composite tubing varieties if this tube does not meet your needs. We offer pultruded materials in round solid bar, pipe, and square bar/tubing. Upon special order, all of our unique fabrics can be converted into piping.

Key Features of Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Tube

• High Strength-to-Weight Ratio – Lightweight but extremely strong.
• Better Flexibility than Plain Weave – Twill weave drapes better around curves, making it suitable for complex shapes.
• Excellent Stiffness and Dimensional Stability.
• Aesthetic Appeal – The diagonal pattern is popular for automotive, aerospace, and consumer products.
• Corrosion Resistance – Does not rust or degrade easily.
• Good Fatigue Resistance – Suitable for high-performance applications.

Applications

• Aerospace & Aviation – Lightweight structural components.
• Automotive – Drive shafts, intake tubes, and decorative parts.
• Sports Equipment – Bicycle frames, fishing rods, ski poles.
• Industrial & Robotics – Robotic arms, precision instruments.

Performance

Although specially laminated, ground, lacquered and polished to produce a carbon fibre tube with a stunning appearance, our 5mm 3K Carbon Fibre tubes are serious tubes suitable for demanding engineering applications including robotics/automation, R/C models, UAVs, recreational equipment, motorsport and marine.
