Product Details

carbon fibre rod

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

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