Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 0.875" ID x 24"

What are the key features of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube (0.875" ID x 24")?

This tube combines a Kevlar core with carbon fiber outer layers, offering enhanced toughness and impact resistance compared to standard carbon fiber tubes. The 0.875 inch inner diameter and 24 inch length make it suitable for applications requiring lightweight strength and durability. Kevlar provides additional resistance to abrasion and splitting, while carbon fiber ensures a high strength-to-weight ratio.

What applications are best suited for this Kevlar core carbon fiber tube?

The Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube is ideal for projects where both strength and impact resistance are critical, such as robotics, aerospace, drones, and custom machinery. Its combination of materials makes it suitable for environments where vibration, shock, or abrasion are concerns.

How does the Kevlar core improve performance compared to standard carbon fiber tubes?

The Kevlar core adds toughness and impact resistance, reducing the risk of splitting or failure under stress. This makes the tube more durable in demanding applications, while the carbon fiber layers maintain a high strength-to-weight ratio and rigidity.

Are there technical resources available for integrating this tube into my design?

Yes, DragonPlate provides downloadable CAD models and detailed technical documentation for its products, including Kevlar core carbon fiber tubes. These resources help engineers and designers integrate the tube into their projects efficiently. For CAD models, visit dragonplate.com/cad-models.

What are the advantages of using a tube with both Kevlar and carbon fiber?

Combining Kevlar and carbon fiber in a tube provides both high strength and enhanced impact resistance. Kevlar improves toughness and resistance to splitting, while carbon fiber delivers stiffness and a superior strength-to-weight ratio. This makes the tube suitable for demanding environments where both properties are needed.

The construction our of Kevlar core carbon fiber tubes is identical to our standard twill roll-wrapped tubes except that the uni-directional plies are replaced with prepreg woven Kevlar. By creating a sandwich laminate where carbon fiber comprises the material layers on the inside and outside of these tubes, Kevlar core carbon fiber tubes maintain most of the stiffness of our standard roll-wrapped twill prepreg tubes, but with greatly increased impact and puncture toughness due to the all Kevlar core. Wall thickness is 1/16" with a gloss finish.
