I was taught to wrap the tube with 3 layers of tape. The first at medium tension, then tight, then medium for the last wrap. My favorite material to make tubes from was a knitted triaxial carbon at +45, -45, and 0 degrees. I made a 59cm frameset that weighed a little over 3lbs with it, the forks weighed right at 1lb.

for high strength, you need to suck vacuum from it. So that 14 psi from atmosphere pressure will be applied to the part to increase the strength. For thicker part, 14psi is not enough, you need to suck vacuum and put the part in pressure container to apply additional 60 psi. If no pressure, there will be random small distance between the fabric.
@MatthieuLibeert Жыл бұрын
An out of autoclave prepreg was used here for the splitmould tube. So -1 Bar which is enough for this prepreg. You are correct with the pressure but not everyone has acces to autoclaves :D so this is giving decently good results but if your looking for parts for F1 or out of space you'd better use an autoclave with pressure as well

thanks awesome! seeing your name you must be dutch or belgian (would rather think dutch) :D The best way would be to measure out the inner diameter you want for your new tube, buy an aluminium mandrel (with your inner diameter you want in carbonfiber being the outer diameter of this aluminium tube and make a tube on this mandrel). Might be hard to explain on here but I guess it's possible to understand?! :D

The tubes have to fit without ANY play. It must be an exact fit. Perhaps I should make 2 tubes that fit into-each other and glue the larger one into the existing tube of the wing. Hoping I will not add much weight by doing that... Then there is the question of how to make tubes with exact dimensions with very small tolerances..

There is a nicer way of sealing the bag using 2 pvc pipes. (assuming it is a bag with one open end) One is C shaped, the side is open. You wrap the plastic around the pipe, do not roll it. Clip the C shaped Pipe over the plastic and pipe. Your done and can re-use this over and over. The closest example I can think of is a woman's hair curlers. But there is no need to roll the 'hair' around the curler, just a wrap.
