Description
The J Perkins C/Fibre Rectangular Tube 6.0mm X 16mm X 1Mt (5518604) is a metric carbon fibre rectangular tube supplied in a 1 metre length. Its rectangular profile provides stiffness, rigidity and resistance to twisting for structural modelling, engineering and DIY projects.
This black carbon fibre tube can be used for RC model aircraft spars, booms and fuselage components, as well as frames, arms and chassis parts for hobby robotics and drones. It is also suited to lightweight supports, custom tooling and other projects where a rigid structural member is required.
Features
The tube is designed for applications where low weight and structural stiffness are important. It can be cut and sanded for fabrication, then bonded using standard two-part epoxy. The continuous 1 metre length provides a single structural member for larger assemblies, while the metric dimensions suit projects using metric measurements. Suggested applications include model aircraft construction, drone frames, robotics prototypes and lightweight engineering structures.
