These tubes are created using our custom 12k Carbon Fiber tow. Wind angles are approximately +-30/45 degree patterns CNC wound over steel mandrels. OD's are grinded down to size. The ID and OD finishes are very smooth with a a slight matter black color. These tubes are amazingly strong and weigh approximately half of the fiberglass counterparts.
Tubes are sold by the foot with a 5' length maximum. Tolerances on cut lengths are typically 1/8".
