Composite tube construction

Anyone a good feel (or website) for composite tube thickness for various materials over various diameters? Strictly composite, not cardboard reinforcement.



Thanks, Joel. phx

4" 2-5oz 1-3oz 1-8oz

That sort of thing?


0-0.75" 1/64

-1.25' 1/32

-2.25" 3/64"

-5.5" 1/16"

Assumes a "substrate tube" is also in place.

If not add 50-100% ON THICKNESS.
