What materials are used in the Braided Carbon/Red Kevlar Round Tubing ~ 0.5" ID x 72"?

This tubing is constructed from a hybrid braid of carbon fiber and red Kevlar. The combination leverages the high strength-to-weight ratio of carbon fiber with the added toughness and impact resistance of Kevlar, resulting in a lightweight yet durable composite tube.

What are the dimensions of this tubing?

The Braided Carbon/Red Kevlar Round Tubing featured on this page has an inner diameter (ID) of 0.5 inches and a length of 72 inches.

What are the key performance characteristics of this carbon/Kevlar tubing?

This tubing offers an optimal strength-to-weight ratio, making it suitable for applications where both light weight and high strength are required. The carbon fiber provides rigidity and low weight, while the Kevlar adds impact resistance and toughness. The composite is also resistant to corrosion, temperature extremes, and UV exposure, ensuring durability in demanding environments.

What typical applications is this tubing suited for?

The Braided Carbon/Red Kevlar Round Tubing is commonly used in applications requiring lightweight, strong, and impact-resistant structural components. Typical uses include robotics, UAVs, drones, sporting equipment, and custom engineering projects where both performance and visual distinction (red Kevlar weave) are desired.

Can this tubing be cut or machined to custom lengths?

Yes, DragonPlate offers CNC cutting and custom fabrication services for carbon/Kevlar tubing. Customers can request specific lengths or custom machining to fit their project requirements.

Is technical documentation available for this tubing?

Technical documentation, including product catalogs and CAD models, is available for DragonPlate's carbon/Kevlar tubing. These resources provide detailed specifications and support integration into your designs.

Dragonplate braided tube with carbon/Kevlar face ply has the same construction as the standard braided tube, but with the outer braided material comprising a hybrid carbon/Kevlar blend. This tube maintains most of the rigidity and strength of the standard all carbon fiber braided tube, but with the aesthetic look of carbon/Kevlar. If additional rigidity and strength are required, the twill roll-wrapped tube with carbon/Kevlar face ply is recommended. These tubes can also be used with our Modular Tube Connecting System to easily create complex structures.

Nearly all of our current carbon fiber braided tubes can be made with the Carbon/Kevlar braid, or even optimized further with a fully customized laminate schedule including both standard and high modulus carbon fiber with the Carbon/Kevlar braid as the outer layer. Call for details. Wall thickness is approximately 0.045". Tube finish is gloss.
