Carbon High Precision Tube Ultra Super Light Ø 18mm x ø 17mm

Product information "Carbon High Precision Tube Ultra Super Light Ø 18mm x ø 17mm"

Our lightweight carbon tubes, USL = Ultra Super Light

For all applications where you want maximum weight savings and don't want to forego the strength of carbon. The tubes of the USL series have a low wall thickness of only 0.5mm, which reduces their weight to a few grams per meter.

Of course, these tubes have the same surface finish as all our tubes - ultra-light carbon without compromise!

The core layers in the tubular structure are unidirectional in the longitudinal direction, resulting in good flexural rigidity. A fabric is used as a cover layer in order to obtain additional compressive strength with an attractive design. In order to guarantee you the appropriate precision, these tubes are also ground to size and, with their fine gradation, can be combined very well with one another, for example as ultra-light telescopic slides.

There are 3 different surfaces to choose from:

• Winding surface (grip surface with good haptics - raw, unprocessed)
• Ground (precision surface ground, smooth, matt)
• Painted (high gloss coating, these tubes are also ground to precision)

More information on the individual surfaces can be found in the “Info about tubes” area
