Premium 0.28mm Micro Carbon Fibre Rod

Overview

Due to its incredible strength and light weight, carbon fibre rod is used in a wide range of applications including aerospace and motor racing but perhaps its most common use in recreational sports equipment like kites and radio controlled models.

This carbon fibre rod is manufactured to engineering tolerances from pultruded unidirectional carbon fibres which means that all the strength of the rods runs laterally along their length.

Features

Pultruded carbon fibre rods are suitable for use in:

Radio-Controlled (RC) Planes/Helicopters
Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs)
Stunt/Power Kites
Robots
Mechanical Control Mechanisms

Specifications

This rod weighs 0.09g per metre.

The diameter has a tolerance of +/-0.1mm.
