Frequently Asked Questions

Braided Carbon Fiber Round Tubing ~ 3.438" ID x 24"

What are the key specifications of the Braided Carbon Fiber Round Tubing ~ 3.438" ID x 24"?

This tubing features an inner diameter (ID) of 3.438 inches and a length of 24 inches. It is constructed using braided carbon fiber, which provides enhanced strength and durability compared to traditional layups. The braided structure offers improved resistance to torsion and impact.

What performance benefits does braided carbon fiber tubing provide?

Braided carbon fiber tubing offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for applications where minimizing weight is critical without sacrificing structural integrity. It is highly resistant to corrosion, temperature extremes, and UV exposure, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding environments. The braided design also improves torsional strength and impact resistance.

What typical applications are suitable for this size and type of tubing?

The 3.438" ID x 24" braided carbon fiber round tubing is commonly used in aerospace, robotics, industrial automation, and custom engineering projects. Its large diameter and durable construction make it suitable for structural components, robotic arms, and other assemblies requiring high strength and low weight.

Can this tubing be customized or cut to specific lengths?

Yes, DragonPlate offers CNC cutting and custom fabrication services for braided carbon fiber tubing. Customers can request specific lengths, custom sheet sizes, or specialized laminate schedules to meet their project requirements. For more details, visit DragonPlate's custom fabrication page.

What resources are available to help integrate this tubing into my design?

This round tubing is comprised of Carbon Fiber Braid and Unidirectional Fabrics. This product is ideal for building light weight frames and structures. Our Carbon Fiber round tubing has been engineered to be much stronger under torsional and side loading than pultruded tubing. Our tubing is also significantly lighter than pultruded tubing. Our carbon fiber round tube has been designed so that the unidirectional layers are captured in a sandwich structure, eliminating longitudinal cracking and splitting. 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.

 

Please allow 10-15 days before this product ships.
