Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 1" ID x 96"

What are the key features of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 1" ID x 96"?

This tube features a Kevlar core combined with carbon fiber outer layers, providing a balance of lightweight strength and enhanced impact resistance. The tube has an inner diameter of approximately 1 inch and a length of 96 inches, making it suitable for applications requiring long, strong, and lightweight tubing.

What are typical applications for this Kevlar core carbon fiber tube?

The 1" ID x 96" Kevlar core carbon fiber tube is commonly used in robotics, aerospace, UAVs, and custom engineering projects where high strength-to-weight ratio and impact resistance are required. Its length and construction make it ideal for structural components, booms, and lightweight frames.

What are the advantages of a Kevlar core in a carbon fiber tube?

The Kevlar core enhances the tube's impact resistance and toughness compared to all-carbon fiber tubes, while maintaining a low weight. This makes the tube suitable for demanding environments where both strength and durability are critical.

Are there recommended adhesives or connectors for assembling this tube?

DragonPlate offers a range of compatible adhesives and modular connector systems designed for use with carbon fiber and Kevlar composite tubes. For best results, refer to the adhesives and connector product pages or contact DragonPlate for guidance on your specific application.

Where can I find technical documentation or CAD models for this tube?

Technical documentation and downloadable CAD models for DragonPlate tubes, including Kevlar core carbon fiber round tubes, are available on the DragonPlate website. Visit the CAD models section or the product's technical documentation page for detailed specifications and integration resources.

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.
