Frequently Asked Questions

Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube ~ 3.375" ID x 96"

What are the key specifications of the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube (3.375" ID x 96")?

This tube features an inner diameter of 3.375 inches and a length of 96 inches. It is constructed with a Kevlar core for enhanced toughness and impact resistance, surrounded by carbon fiber for optimal strength-to-weight ratio. The combination provides improved durability and performance for demanding applications.

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

The Kevlar core increases the tube's toughness and impact resistance compared to standard carbon fiber tubes. This makes it suitable for applications where additional resilience is needed, such as robotics, aerospace, and industrial automation. The carbon fiber exterior maintains a high strength-to-weight ratio and resistance to corrosion and temperature extremes.

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

This tube is ideal for projects requiring lightweight yet tough structural components, including robotics, aerospace, industrial automation, and custom engineering solutions. Its combination of Kevlar and carbon fiber makes it suitable for environments where both strength and impact resistance are critical.

Is technical documentation or CAD support available for this tube?

Yes, DragonPlate provides detailed technical documentation and downloadable CAD models to help customers integrate the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube into their designs. These resources are available on the DragonPlate website and support efficient project planning and implementation.

How easy is it to cut, drill, or bond the Kevlar Core Carbon Fiber Round Tube?

Customers report that DragonPlate's tubes, including Kevlar core variants, are easy to cut, drill, and bond without specialized equipment. This allows for straightforward integration into custom projects and reduces setup time. For best results, follow recommended safety and tooling guidelines provided in DragonPlate's technical 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.
