100% 3K High Precision Tube Ultra Super Light Thin Wall Carbon Fiber Tube

Thin wall carbon fiber tubes are lightweight, high-strength tubular structures engineered for applications where performance, precision, and weight reduction are essential. Manufactured from premium carbon fiber prepreg and cured under high temperature and pressure, these tubes deliver exceptional stiffness, excellent tensile strength, and superior dimensional stability with minimal wall thickness.

What Is a Thin Wall Carbon Fiber Tube?

A thin wall carbon fiber tube typically features a wall thickness ranging from 0.5 mm to 2 mm, depending on application requirements. Despite the reduced thickness, it maintains outstanding mechanical performance thanks to the anisotropic properties of carbon fiber and optimized layup patterns such as unidirectional (UD), roll-wrapped, and woven layers.

Key Features

• Ultra-lightweight: Ideal for reducing mass in high-performance systems.
• High stiffness-to-weight ratio: Stronger than aluminum and lighter than steel.
• Excellent tensile and flexural strength: Supports demanding loads without deformation.
• Low thermal expansion: Maintains shape and performance across temperature changes.
• Corrosion and fatigue resistant: Suitable for harsh environments.
• Smooth surface finish: Cosmetic 3K twill/plain weave options available.
• Precision tolerances: Perfect for custom engineering projects.

Manufacturing Process

Thin wall tubes are commonly produced via:

1. Roll-wrapping – Layers of carbon fiber prepreg are wrapped around a mandrel at controlled angles for maximum strength.
2. Pultrusion (for some thin-walled profiles) – Ensures consistent fiber alignment and cost efficiency.
3. Filament winding – Used when specific helical winding angles are needed for torque resistance.

Each method ensures a perfect balance between strength, minimal weight, and surface aesthetics.

Applications

Thin-wall carbon fiber tubes are widely used in industries that require high performance with low mass, including:

• Drones & UAVs: Frames, booms, landing gear.
• Robotics: Lightweight arms and structural components.
• RC models: Airplanes, cars, and racing applications.
• Sports equipment: Poles, shafts, and custom gear.
• Medical devices: Lightweight structural supports.
• Industrial automation: Precision rollers and machine parts.
