1x 50mm OD x 47mm ID x 100mm 3K Carbon Fibre Tube Roll-Wrapped
3K Roll Wrapped Carbon Fibre Tube For Kites, Quadcopters, R/C Aeroplanes etc. Very light and strong.
These tubes are roll-wrapped pre-preg made from 100% carbon fibre. 3K Roll wrapped tubes feature multi-axial orientation of the carbon fibres which gives them more uniformly distributed strength ideally suited to more demanding 'real world' applications where load and forces are rarely in only one direction. Typical uses include mast poles, spinnakers, booms, structural racking and many other medium to heavy-duty applications.
Carbon fibre reinforced polymer
CFRP or often called simply carbon fibre is an extremely strong and light fibre-reinforced polymer which contains carbon fibres.CFRP can be expensive to produce but are commonly used wherever high strength-to-weight ratio and rigidity are required, such as aerospace, automotive and civil engineering, sports goods and an increasing number of other consumer and technical applications.
CFRP is a composite material. In this case the composite consists of two parts: a matrix and a reinforcement. In CFRP the reinforcement is carbon fibre, which provides the strength. The matrix is usually a polymer resin, such as epoxy, to bind the reinforcements together. Because CFRP consists of two distinct elements, the material properties depend on these two elements. The reinforcement will give the CFRP its strength and rigidity; measured by stress and elastic modulus respectively.
Unlike isotropic materials like steel and aluminium, CFRP has directional strength properties. The properties of CFRP depend on the layout of the carbon fibre and the proportion of the carbon fibres relative to the polymer
