Square Carbon Tubes

Square carbon tubes are square on the outside with a round hole in the middle. These tubes are pultruded and have longitudinally-oriented fibers. Square carbon tubes are a great choice if you have an application that requires a square profile but the stiffness and lightness of a carbon fiber tube. Our customers often use these rods as stiffeners in foam surfboards and foam RC models.
