Frequently Asked Questions

Square Tube - 2.5" x 2.5" x 96" - 1/16" Wall - Twill/Uni - Standard Mod

What are the dimensions and specifications of the Square Tube - 2.5" x 2.5" x 96" - 1/16" Wall - Twill/Uni - Standard Mod?

This product is a roll-wrapped carbon fiber square tube with an inner diameter of 2.5 inches, an outer diameter of 2.5 inches, a length of 96 inches, and a wall thickness of 1/16 inch. It features a twill/uni finish and is classified as Standard Modulus.

What materials and construction methods are used for this square tube?

The tube is constructed from high-performance carbon fiber using a roll-wrapped process. The twill/uni finish provides both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity. Standard modulus carbon fiber is used for balanced strength and stiffness.

What are the typical applications for the Square Tube - 2.5" x 2.5" x 96"?

This square tube is suitable for structural applications requiring lightweight and high-strength materials, such as robotics, aerospace, industrial automation, and custom assemblies. Its size and durability make it ideal for building rigid frameworks and supporting loads where weight reduction is critical.

What performance characteristics does this square tube offer?

The tube delivers an optimal strength-to-weight ratio, high durability, and resistance to corrosion, temperature extremes, and UV exposure. These features ensure reliable performance in demanding environments and long-term structural integrity.

Are custom sizes or modifications available for this square tube?

DragonPlate offers custom fabrication services, including CNC cutting and specialized laminate schedules, to tailor square tubes to specific project requirements. Customers can request custom sizes or modifications to meet unique design needs. Explore customization options.

Dragonplate’s roll wrapped twill carbon fiber rectangular tubes are manufactured with the uni sandwiched between twill weave layers on the inside and outside surfaces of the tube. This construction better supports the uni layer, improving toughness and stability, particularly near the tube ends, and interfaces well with our modular connector. Outside finish is gloss.

Carbon fiber tube manufacturers often only have a twill layer on the outside of the tube, as this approach is less costly and easier to make, but provides less support to the inner surface of the uni layer. At Dragonplate, we consider this additional layer of twill to be worth the extra effort, as it results in higher quality and more robust tubes for our customers.

Roll wrapped twill finish rectangular tubes are ideal for building lightweight frames and structures, tubular vessels, poles, column supports, and any other applications where low weight and high stiffness are essential, yet appearance is also important.

High modulus options are available on longer length carbon fiber rectangular tubes. If you are looking for thicker walled tubes, contact us for more details.
