Composite Tubes Overview

Composite tubes are high-performance structural components manufactured from fiber-reinforced composite materials.
Compared with metal tubing, composite tubing offers superior strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and design flexibility.

In industrial and OEM applications, composite tubes are commonly supplied as Kohlefaserrohre, fiberglass tubes, or carbon Kevlar tubes, depending on stiffness requirements, durability expectations, and cost targets.
Through controlled laminate design and manufacturing processes, composite tubing can be optimized for structural load, environmental exposure, and long-term dimensional stability.

Composite tubes are widely used in aerospace, robotics, industrial equipment, energy systems, and other applications where lightweight yet reliable tubular structures are required.

Composite Tubes vs Metal Tubes

Composite tubes are increasingly chosen over metal tubes for lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and durable OEM applications.

Factor Steel Tubes Aluminum Tubes Komposit-Rohre
Density ~7.8 g/cm³ 2.7 g/cm³ 1.5–2.0 g/cm³
Strength-to-Weight Low Moderate 2–5× aluminum
Corrosion Resistance Poor (needs coating) Good (may pit) Excellent (no rust)
Typical Service Life 5–10 yrs 10–15 yrs 15–25+ yrs
Fatigue Performance Moderate Moderate High
Personalisierung Limited Moderate High (layup design)

Typical engineering reference ranges based on ASTM, ASM, and ISO composite material data. Actual performance may vary by design and service conditions.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Composite tube material selection depends on structural requirements, service environment, and cost constraints.
Evaluating load conditions and durability needs helps determine the most suitable composite system for the application.

Composite tubes typically offer higher strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight performance than metal tubes.
Overall strength depends on structural design and application requirements rather than material type alone.

Yes. Composite tubes are commonly engineered for OEM applications with customized dimensions, laminate structures, and material systems based on project-specific requirements.
