Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 2.5" ID x 24"

What are the key features of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube (2.5" ID x 24")?

This tube combines a Kevlar core with carbon fiber outer layers, offering an optimal strength-to-weight ratio. It is lightweight, highly durable, and resistant to corrosion, temperature extremes, and UV exposure. The 2.5" inner diameter and 24" length make it suitable for structural and engineering applications where both strength and reduced weight are critical.

How does the Kevlar core improve the performance of the tube?

The Kevlar core increases the tube's impact resistance and toughness compared to standard carbon fiber tubes. This makes the tube less prone to cracking or breaking under stress, while maintaining a high strength-to-weight ratio.

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 2.5" ID x 24"

$119.49
SKU: FDPT2.5*2.625*24*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.
