FIND YOUR RELIABLE MANUFACTURER OF CARBON FIBER RODS

Pultrusion Method

Carbon fibers are pulled through a resin bath, ensuring even impregnation.The fiber-resin mixture passes through a heated die to form the desired rod shape.Continuous curing takes place as the rod moves through the die.

Personnalisable

Non seulement la longueur et le diamètre, mais aussi tous les autres aspects peuvent être personnalisés, y compris les câbles de fibres, les finitions de surface (mate, brillante), les qualités (T300, T700, T800) et les formes.

Solution à guichet unique

Avec notre machine CNC, une fois que la tige de fibre de carbone pultrudée est passée par les zones de façonnage et de refroidissement, elle est coupée à la longueur souhaitée à l'aide d'une scie ou d'un autre outil de coupe.

Longueur et diamètre

The length and diameter of a carbon fiber rod can be customized based on application needs. Here’s a breakdown:

1. Length

Standard lengths typically range from 500mm to 3000mm (0.5m to 3m).
Custom lengths can be produced as per requirements.
Some manufacturers offer continuous lengths for special applications.

2. Diameter

Common diameters range from 0.5mm to 50mm or more.
Micro rods (below 1mm diameter) are available for precision applications.
Large-diameter rods (over 50mm) can be manufactured for high-load applications.

Since carbon fiber rods are customizable, the exact length and diameter can be tailored based on the strength, weight, and performance needed. Let me know if you need more details!

Tissage

Vous pouvez choisir parmi plusieurs options de tissage pour la couche extérieure afin de répondre à vos exigences mécaniques tout en donnant aux tubes en fibre de carbone un aspect attrayant.

Finition de surface

Elle est également disponible dans différentes finitions, notamment brillante et mate. La fibre de carbone brillante présente une surface lisse et réfléchissante, ce qui lui confère un aspect élégant et brillant. La fibre de carbone mate présente une surface non réfléchissante et une finition plus douce et plus discrète.

Traits en fibre de carbone

"K" représente mille et est utilisé pour indiquer le nombre de fibres dans chaque faisceau. Plus le chiffre est élevé, plus le faisceau est large, ce qui se traduit également par des différences d'aspect.

Grade de résistance de la fibre de carbone

Nous comprenons que des applications différentes exigent des niveaux de performance différents. C'est pourquoi nous proposons 3 grades de fibre de carbone parmi les plus populaires pour répondre à vos besoins spécifiques

What Is a Carbon Fiber Rod?

Carbon fiber rods stand among the most sought-after composite materials in engineering, manufacturing, and performance-driven applications. Stronger than steel, lighter than aluminum, and resistant to wear, these advanced rods solve challenges where traditional materials fall short. But what makes them unique? How do they outperform alternatives? Let’s break down the details in a way that matters to those seeking durability, precision, and efficiency.

A carbon fiber rod consists of tightly packed carbon filaments infused with a polymer matrix. This fusion creates unmatched tensile strength, extraordinary stiffness, and impressive fatigue resistance. Unlike metal or wood, composite rods shrug off corrosion, moisture, and environmental degradation. Applications range from aerospace to sports equipment, industrial automation, and structural reinforcement.

Why Choose Carbon Fiber Rods Over Other Materials?

Lightweight yet strong – Pound for pound, these rods outperform steel in strength while weighing a fraction as much.
Corrosion-resistant – Unlike metals, carbon fiber will not rust, warp, or weaken in humid, salty, or chemical-heavy environments.
Exceptional stiffness – High rigidity ensures precision and minimal deflection, making them ideal for robotics, automation, and precision tools.
Durability in extreme conditions – Heat, cold, and pressure fluctuations barely affect their integrity.
Minimal thermal expansion – These rods retain their shape and strength even in fluctuating temperatures.

Real-World Uses of Carbon Fiber Rods

From cutting-edge industries to everyday applications, these composite rods deliver unmatched performance. Some key examples include:

Aérospatiale – Structural supports, lightweight frameworks, UAV components.
Automotive – Chassis reinforcements, racing modifications, weight-saving upgrades.
Sports & Recreation – Fishing rods, kites, archery equipment, performance bicycles.
Construction & Architecture – Concrete reinforcement, structural beams, bridge supports.
Medical & Prosthetics – Lightweight orthotic devices, rehabilitation aids, surgical instruments.

Selecting the Right Carbon Fiber Rod

With various sizes, fiber orientations, and resin systems available, choosing the ideal rod requires an understanding of project needs. Consider these critical factors:

1. Fiber Orientation Matters

Unidirectional rods – Maximum stiffness along a single axis, perfect for structural applications needing high tensile strength.
Tiges en fibre de carbone pultrudée – Consistent fiber alignment ensures top-tier mechanical properties, making them useful for load-bearing applications.
Woven or braided – Enhanced flexibility and impact resistance, often chosen for dynamic movements or sports equipment.

2. Resin System Defines Performance

Epoxy-based – Provides superior strength and longevity, often used in high-performance applications.
Vinyl ester – More affordable and offers good resistance to environmental factors.
Phenolic – Heat-resistant and suited for fire-safe applications.

3. Diameter and Wall Thickness Determine Strength

Thicker rods handle higher loads, but unnecessary weight may reduce efficiency. Engineers optimize thickness for maximum strength with minimal weight.

Common Problems and How Carbon Fiber Rods Solve Them

Problem: Weight Constraints

Traditional materials like steel and aluminum increase system weight, reducing efficiency. Solution: Carbon fiber rods maintain strength without excess mass, improving energy savings and performance.

Problem: Corrosion & Degradation

Metal weakens over time due to rust, exposure, and wear. Solution: Composite rods withstand harsh conditions without deterioration, ensuring long-term reliability.

Problem: Flex & Structural Instability

Wood or plastic can bend unpredictably under load, leading to failure. Solution: Carbon fiber rods offer predictable stiffness and consistent performance.

Choosing the right carbon fiber rod means considering fiber orientation, resin type, and diameter for the job at hand. Whether reinforcing a high-speed vehicle, designing a lightweight robotic arm, or crafting high-performance sporting equipment, carbon fiber rods stand out as the ultimate material. They replace outdated alternatives, solve critical engineering challenges, and push industries toward stronger, more efficient solutions.
