0.5" Carbon Fiber Tangent Tube Mount™ - 12" Long

$57.00
SKU: FDPCK-MC.5-TTM*12

The Tangent Tube Mount™ makes it easy to attach a carbon fiber tube to a plate or other flat surface. The curved portion of the mount is bonded to a carbon fiber tube, and the flat side is bonded/bolted to the plate.

In addition, using two tangent tube mounts per tube, two or more plates can be joined together at the edge allowing the creation of both inside and outside corners.

The Tangent Tube Mount™ can also be utilized to facilitate the attachment of a round tube to the side of a truss, frame structure, or square tube.

These brackets are well suited for mounting carbon fiber tubes in robotic end effectors, electronic rack shelving, support plates for scientific equipment, table tops, UAV’s and many other applications.
