This tubing is comprised solely of Carbon Fiber Braid. This product is ideal for building light weight frames and structures such as trusses. Our braided carbon fiber tubing has been engineered to be much stronger under torsional and side loading than pultruded tubing. Two options for finish on this tube are available. Natural, where the finish shows the texture of the carbon fiber braid with a wet shiny appearance and gloss, which has a flatter, more uniform glossy surface.

Dimensions are taken from the inside.
