A roll wrapped carbon tube is manufactured by wrapping unidirectional carbon fiber prepreg tape around a mandrel with the majority, but not all, of the carbon fiber running longitudinally. This type of construction offers a higher strength to weight ratio than is available in pultruded tubes. Typically used where thin walled, lightweight tubes are required to provide additional torsional stiffness and high strength.
MACHINING TIPS: To cut carbon fiber use an abrasive cutoff wheel or 32 teeth per inch hacksaw. Do not use a band saw.
