VEC™ Carbon fibre square tubes, inside round, pultruded

Технические характеристики

Square tube consisting of carbon fibre and vinyl ester resin.

Tolerances of inside diameter max. ± 10 %.

VEC™-Carbon fibre (Vinyl ester resin and carbon fibre) -products are made in the pultrusion / pullwinding method as well as roll-wrapping and liquid resin press moulding (more information about these specific working processes you´ll find at the R&G eWiki)

Vinyl ester is sort of a combination of epoxy and polyester resin. Characteristic properties of vinyl ester are the high temperature resistance and chemical resistance with excellent mechanical properties (stiffness / elongation). Compared to epoxy resins vinyl ester have advantages that make them eminently suitable for processing of semi-finished products (profiles): a low viscosity, i.e. fast and very good impregnation of carbon fiber and a fast, highly controllable curing reaction.

This makes it possible to produce semi-finished products with high quality similar to epoxy as well as economically and thus inexpensive.

Carbon fibre semi-finished products with light weight, high strength, excellent corrosion and heat resistance and electrical conductivity.

Tolerances:
Deviation in the straightness max. 2 mm / m. The measured values are generally well below the maximum.
