Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 1.5" ID x 96"

What are the key features of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube (1.5" ID x 96")?

This tube combines a Kevlar core with carbon fiber outer layers, offering enhanced toughness and impact resistance compared to standard carbon fiber tubes. The 1.5" inner diameter and 96" length make it suitable for applications requiring long, lightweight, and durable tubing. Kevlar provides additional resilience against cracking and splitting, while carbon fiber ensures high strength-to-weight ratio and stiffness.

What applications are best suited for the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube?

This tube is ideal for projects where both high strength and impact resistance are required, such as robotics, aerospace, UAVs, and custom engineering structures. The Kevlar core helps absorb shocks and prevents damage from impacts, making it a preferred choice for demanding environments.

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

The Kevlar core increases the tube's toughness and resistance to splitting or cracking under impact, while maintaining the lightweight and stiffness benefits of carbon fiber. This makes the tube more durable in applications where vibration, shock, or accidental impacts are likely.

Are technical resources available for integrating this tube into custom designs?

Yes, DragonPlate provides downloadable CAD models and detailed technical documentation for Kevlar core carbon fiber tubes. These resources help engineers and designers integrate the tube into their projects efficiently. For more information, visit the CAD models page and the Kevlar composite products section.

Can the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube be customized for specific project requirements?

DragonPlate offers custom fabrication services, including CNC cutting and specialized laminate schedules, for Kevlar core carbon fiber tubes. Customers can request custom lengths, diameters, and finishes to match their project needs. Learn more about customization options at Custom Carbon Fiber Fabrication.

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 1.5" ID x 96"

$320.55
SKU: FDPT1.5*1.625*96*KC*

Please Allow 10-15 days before this item ships

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.
