Product overview
The Dronecarbon Square Carbon Fiber Tube provides a square structural profile for drone arms and frame construction. Its flat faces support straightforward bolting and fastening to existing structures. Compression molding forms the tube from carbon fiber prepreg, with a typical layup at 0 and 90 degrees. Two-mold construction produces a precise, clean interior for applications that require parts to fit inside the tube; single-mold construction leaves a rough interior. Other applications include construction of Formula 1 and other high-performance racing vehicles.
Common tube lengths are 500 mm, 1000 mm (1 meter), and 2000 mm (2 meters), with a maximum length of 6000mm and custom lengths available. Standard wall thickness typically ranges from 1.0 mm to 2.0 mm; custom thicknesses are also available, with increased thickness adding weight. Custom orders offer Glossy or Matte surfaces and Plain weave, Twill weave, or Unidirectional options. Fiber orientations and laminates can be tailored to specific strength and stiffness requirements, alongside alternative rectangular, octagonal, hexagonal and oval profiles.
