Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 2.375" ID x 48"

What are the key specifications of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 2.375" ID x 48"?

This tube features an inner diameter of 2.375 inches and a length of 48 inches. It is constructed with a Kevlar core and carbon fiber exterior, combining the toughness of Kevlar with the strength and lightweight properties of carbon fiber. This design is ideal for applications requiring high durability and optimal strength-to-weight ratio.

What performance benefits does the Kevlar core provide in this carbon fiber tube?

The Kevlar core enhances impact resistance and toughness, making the tube less prone to cracking or splintering under stress. Combined with the carbon fiber exterior, the tube delivers superior strength-to-weight ratio and durability, suitable for demanding environments where both strength and resilience are required.

What typical applications are suitable for the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube?

This tube is well-suited for aerospace, robotics, industrial automation, and other applications where lightweight, high-strength, and impact-resistant materials are essential. Its combination of Kevlar and carbon fiber makes it ideal for structural components, protective assemblies, and custom engineering projects.

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

Yes, DragonPlate offers CNC cutting and custom sheet sizes for this tube. Customers can request specialized laminate schedules or modifications to meet unique performance and design needs. For more details, visit the custom fabrication page.

Where can I find technical documentation or CAD models for the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube?

Technical documentation, including product catalogs and downloadable CAD models, is available on the DragonPlate website. These resources provide detailed specifications and integration guidance for the tube. Access CAD models at dragonplate.com/cad-models.

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.
