Because these wear-resistant nylon 6/6 tubes have a slippery surface that reduces friction, they’re often machined into bearings, gears, and valve seats.

Ultra-Strength Lightweight Carbon Fiber Round Tubes
Often used in place of aluminum for structural frames, machinery components, and robotics, these tubes are lighter in weight and almost as rigid. Carbon fiber is known for its use in the aerospace industry where a balance of weight and strength is vital. Thanks to these tubes being lightweight, they reduce wear and stress on motorized parts to extend the life of machinery.
Checked carbon fiber has the classic carbon-fiber look and is easy to machine—it won’t fray or splinter when cut. Matte carbon fiber is ready to paint and won’t reflect light, making it ideal for photography applications.

Slit Corrugated Sleeving with Closure Strip
Seal out dirt and dust better than standard slit sleeving—this sleeving secures shut with a closure strip. A slit along its entire length lets you install it around wire, cable, and hose that are already connected. Made of corrugated nylon, it resists wear and impact better than polyethylene sleeving and about as well as conduit. It’s ideal for high-traffic areas. It also resists acids and solvents, and it won’t crack from exposure to direct sunlight.
Speed up installation with the included tool, which routes cables and the rubber closure strip through the sleeving while closing the slit like a zipper. To use the tool, you have to disconnect your cables on one end. The tool holds plug ends while it pulls your cables through, so you don’t have to route bulky plugs through the sleeving.
