High-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Rods
 |
Reinforce structures with these rods—they weigh less than aluminum while remaining strong and almost as rigid. Their fibers are aligned in a single direction, so they hold up to bending across the fibers but will splinter and separate like string cheese when bent along the length of the fiber. Carbon fiber is known for its use in the aerospace industry where a balance of weight and strength is vital.

High-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Round Tubes
Plain Glossy Round Tubes
 |
Plain glossy tubes have layers with fibers that alternate in two directions, so they resist bending and crushing across the entire tube. They have more structural integrity compared to plain matte tubes.
Glossy carbon fiber can be sanded for a matte finish or to prep it for painting.

Plain Matte Round Tubes
|
Plain matte tubes have fibers that run in one direction, making them strong in the direction of the fibers. They resist bending across the fibers but will splinter and separate like string cheese when bent along the length of the fiber.
Matte carbon fiber is ready to paint and won’t reflect light, making it ideal for photography applications.

Checked Glossy Round Tubes
 |
Checked carbon fiber is easy to machine and will not fray or splinter when cut. It has the classic carbon-fiber look. Checked tubes have layers with fibers that alternate in two directions, so they resist bending and crushing across the entire tube. They have more structural integrity compared to plain matte tubes.
Glossy carbon fiber can be sanded for a matte finish or to prep it for painting.

Checked Matte Round Tubes
 |
Checked carbon fiber is easy to machine and will not fray or splinter when cut. It has the classic carbon-fiber look. Checked tubes have layers with fibers that alternate in two directions, so they resist bending and crushing across the entire tube. They have more structural integrity compared to plain matte tubes.
Matte carbon fiber is ready to paint and won’t reflect light, making it ideal for photography applications.

Rigid High-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Round Tubes
 |
Often used for structural framing, machinery components, and robotics, these carbon fiber tubes are as stiff as steel yet a fraction of the weight. Carbon fiber is known for its use in the aerospace industry where a balance of weight and strength is vital. Because they are lightweight, they reduce wear and stress on motorized parts, which increases the life of machinery. These tubes are constructed with layers that alternate fibers in two directions, making them difficult to bend.
The checked pattern on these tubes keeps fibers from splintering when the tubes are cut, making them easy to machine. It also has a classic carbon-fiber look. These tubes are glossy and can be sanded for a matte finish.

Carbon Fiber Slip-On Framing and Fittings
High-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Half Rounds
 |
Mount these lightweight half rounds on flat surfaces to reinforce frames and structures. Carbon fiber is often used in place of aluminum because it weighs less but is almost as rigid. These half rounds have fibers that run in one direction, making them strongest in the direction of the fibers. They resist bending across the fibers but will splinter and separate like string cheese when bent along the length of the fiber. Carbon fiber is known for its use in the aerospace industry where a balance of weight and strength is critical.

High-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Square Tubes
 |
Mount these lightweight tubes to flat surfaces in place of aluminum to create structural frames, machinery components, and robotics. This carbon fiber weighs less yet is almost as rigid as aluminum. Adopted by the aerospace industry, carbon fiber is known for its balance of weight and strength. And since it's lightweight, it reduces the wear and stress on motorized parts, extending the life of machines.
These tubes have layers that alternate fibers in three directions, so they spread out their strength and resist crushing along the entire tube. They are checked, so they won’t fray or splinter when cut, making them easy to machine. They have the classic carbon-fiber look.
