Fiberglass Epoxy Tubes


Filament wound tubes are wound from glass ­laminates dipped in epoxy resin, and offer excellent mechanical, electrical, and physical properties, even at elevated temperatures from 130ºC to 180ºC. (266ºF to 356ºF).

The flexible winding angles give unique strength characteristics, including high impact resistance. Great for kites.
