Frequently Asked Questions

Square Tube - 2.5" x 2.5" x 96" - 1/16" Wall - Twill/Uni - Ultra High Mod Specifications & Usage

What are the dimensions and construction details of the Square Tube - 2.5" x 2.5" x 96" - 1/16" Wall - Twill/Uni - Ultra High Mod?

This carbon fiber square tube measures 2.5 inches by 2.5 inches in cross-section, is 96 inches long, and has a wall thickness of 1/16 inch. It features a combination of twill and unidirectional (uni) fiber orientations and is classified as "Ultra High Modulus," indicating superior stiffness and strength for demanding applications.

What performance benefits does the Ultra High Modulus square tube offer?

The Ultra High Modulus square tube provides an optimal strength-to-weight ratio, making it suitable for applications requiring high stiffness and minimal weight. It is highly resistant to corrosion, temperature extremes, and UV exposure, ensuring durability in challenging environments. These properties are ideal for aerospace, robotics, and industrial automation projects. Learn more about performance analysis.

What typical applications or industries use this square tube?

Dragonplate’s roll wrapped twill carbon fiber rectangular tubes are manufactured with the uni sandwiched between twill weave layers on the inside and outside surfaces of the tube. This construction better supports the uni layer, improving toughness and stability, particularly near the tube ends, and interfaces well with our modular connector. Outside finish is gloss.

Carbon fiber tube manufacturers often only have a twill layer on the outside of the tube, as this approach is less costly and easier to make, but provides less support to the inner surface of the uni layer. At Dragonplate, we consider this additional layer of twill to be worth the extra effort, as it results in higher quality and more robust tubes for our customers.

Roll wrapped twill finish rectangular tubes are ideal for building lightweight frames and structures, tubular vessels, poles, column supports, and any other applications where low weight and high stiffness are essential, yet appearance is also important.

High modulus options are available on longer length carbon fiber rectangular tubes. If you are looking for thicker walled tubes, contact us for more details.
