Frequently Asked Questions

Braided Kevlar Round Tube ~ 1.125" ID x 48"

What are the key features of the Braided Kevlar Round Tube ~ 1.125" ID x 48"?

This tube is constructed from braided Kevlar fibers, offering a combination of high strength, lightweight performance, and durability. Kevlar is known for its resistance to abrasion and impact, making it suitable for demanding applications where toughness is required. The tube has an inner diameter of 1.125 inches and a length of 48 inches.

What applications are suitable for this Kevlar tube?

Braided Kevlar tubes are commonly used in projects requiring high strength and impact resistance, such as robotics, aerospace, industrial automation, and custom engineering builds. Their lightweight and durable nature makes them ideal for structural components where minimizing weight is critical.

How does the strength and durability of Kevlar compare to carbon fiber?

Kevlar offers superior impact and abrasion resistance compared to carbon fiber, making it a preferred choice for applications where toughness is essential. While carbon fiber provides a higher strength-to-weight ratio and stiffness, Kevlar excels in situations where flexibility and resistance to damage are required.

Are custom sizes or fabrication options available for Kevlar tubes?

DragonPlate offers custom fabrication services, including CNC cutting and specialized laminate schedules, to meet specific design and performance requirements. Customers can request custom sizes or tailored solutions for Kevlar tubes by contacting DragonPlate directly. Explore customization options.

Comprised of 100% Kevlar, these braided tubes are a good choice for those who require a tube with a higher impact resistance than that of carbon fiber. Can also be used for those applications that require a tube with low electrical conductivity. Kevlar tubes transmit RF signals much better than carbon fiber tubes and are also more abrasion resistant. Gloss Finish.

 

Available in wall thicknesses of approximately 0.03" and 0.06". Contact us for a quote on additional wall thicknesses.
