1.2mm Carbon Fibre Rod

Due to its incredible strength and light weight, carbon fibre rod is used in a wide range of applications including aerospace and motor racing but perhaps its most common use is recreational sports equipment, like kites and radio controlled models.

Our carbon fibre rod is manufactured to engineering tolerances from pultruded unidirectional carbon fibres which means that all the strength of the rods runs laterally along their length.

Typical Uses

Pultruded carbon fibre rods are suitable for use in:

• Radio-Controlled (RC) Planes/Helicopters
• Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs)
• Stunt/Power Kites
• Robots
• Mechanical Control Mechanisms

How to Buy

Our rods are available in a 1m or 2m length. Please choose the length you require from the drop-down list.

Volume discounts are available for large orders. Please contact us for pricing. We can also supply wholesale quantities to model shops, manufacturers or resellers. Please contact us for more information.
