Extremely Strong and Durable Light Weight 100% 3K Glossy Carbon Fiber Tube
Glossy carbon fiber tubes are carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) tubes with a high-gloss finish. This finish is achieved through a meticulous manufacturing process and surface treatment, giving the tubes a shiny, reflective appearance. Here’s a detailed overview:
Characteristics
- Material: Composed of carbon fiber and a polymer resin, typically epoxy.
- Finish: High-gloss surface, achieved through polishing and clear coating.
- Appearance: Reflective, with visible carbon fiber weave pattern, often with a depth-enhancing effect.
- Dimensions: Available in various diameters, wall thicknesses, and lengths.
Applications
- Aesthetics: Used where visual appeal is important, such as in automotive and motorcycle parts, sporting goods, and consumer electronics
- Sports Equipment: High-end fishing rods, bicycle frames, and golf clubs.
- Decorative: Used in architectural elements and interior design.
- Automotive: Visible parts like dashboards, trims, and exterior components for luxury and performance vehicles.
- Aerospace: In certain components where aesthetics and performance are both critical.
Benefits
- High Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Provides substantial strength while being lightweight.
- Aesthetic Appeal: High-gloss finish with a visible carbon fiber weave gives a premium look.
- Durability: Resistant to environmental factors, UV radiation, and scratches (depending on the clear coat quality).
- Customizability: Can be tailored to specific dimensions and finishes.
- Corrosion Resistance: Unlike metals, carbon fiber does not rust or corrode.

The first use of carbon fiber in high performance goes back to 1960-1970. It became popular very quickly in every technical area where lightness and strength were primary requirements.
Carbon fiber originates from thermal pyrolysis in a controlled oven where a material called precursor is strongly warmed up at a temperature of about 2000° C in an inert gas atmosphere to produce graphite.
Then other heat treatments modify the final properties of the fibers, for example warming up at temperatures lower than 2000°C gives you a more strength material, whereas with higher temperatures you'll get a more expensive carbon fiber but with a higher Elastic Modulus (Young's modulus).
This is why today there are many kinds of carbon fibers that, even if they're similar, leads to products with different prices and performances.
The carbon fibers previously obtained are lately drowned in epoxy resin (called the matrix) that acts as a binder, allowing the fibers to work together and to distribute the strain uniformly to each one of them.
As you can guess this matrix has a primary role and it has been studied and improved in the last years, like the nanocomposite fillers inside of it.
