High Strength Corrosion Resistant Carbon Fiber Tubes : Custom Solutions For Drones , Medical Devices & High-End Sports Equipment
Carbon fiber tubes are high-performance composite materials engineered from carbon fiber reinforced polymer matrices through pultrusion or filament winding processes. These tubes combine ultra-lightweight construction (density: 1.5–1.65 g/cm³), exceptional strength (tensile strength up to 3000 MPa), and corrosion resistance. Widely used in aerospace, medical devices, and high-end sports equipment, they serve as ideal alternatives to traditional metal tubes.
Ultra-High Mechanical Performance
Strength: Tensile strength exceeds 3000 MPa, 5–12 times higher than aluminum and stainless steel.
Lightweight: Density as low as 1.5 g/cm³, reducing overall equipment weight by 20–30% (e.g., drones).
High Modulus: Elastic modulus ranges from 165–230 GPa, maintaining dimensional stability under extreme temperatures (-60°C to +150°C).
Customizable Design
Shapes: Circular, square, rectangular, or irregular profiles (hexagonal, elliptical).
Sizes: Diameters from 3 mm to 400 mm; lengths up to 2 meters.
Surface Treatments: 3K twill/flat weaving, matte/gloss finishes, or custom patterns.
Extreme Environment Adaptability
Corrosion Resistance: Immune to acids, alkalis, salt spray, and UV radiation (lifespan >15 years for medical applications).
X-Ray Transparency: No metal artifacts, ideal for CT scanner brackets and surgical tools.
Rapid Prototyping & Production
Small-Batch Customization: Minimum order of 10 meters with ±0.1 mm dimensional tolerance.
Post-Processing: Drilling, threading, overmolding (PE/PVC), and complex assembly integration.
Aerospace: Aircraft wing skeletons, satellite brackets (lightweight + high rigidity).
Industrial Machinery: Mechanical transmission shafts, hydraulic rods, etching machine rollers.
Medical Devices: External fixation devices, surgical instruments, rehabilitation equipment.
Sports Equipment: Golf clubs, ski poles, bicycle frames (shock absorption + weight reduction).
Drones/UAVs: Frame structures, gimbal supports (wind resistance + low center of gravity).
Installation Guide:
Use carbon fiber-specific adhesives or titanium fasteners to avoid stress concentration.
For irregular tubes: Pre-align with positioning molds to ensure angular accuracy (error ≤0.5°).
Maintenance Tips:
Inspect connections annually; replace corroded fasteners immediately.
Clean with pH-neutral detergents; avoid abrasive tools.
Certifications: ISO 9001, CE, SGS-tested (tensile/compressive/fire resistance).
Fast Delivery: Standard items in 7–15 days; custom orders within 30 days.
Cost Efficiency: 30% lower pricing than imported alternatives; free samples and technical optimization.
