ACP's round carbon rods are made from continuous carbon fibers in an vinyl-ester (epoxy available upon request) base. They are extremely stiff and lightweight and have a very low coefficient of expansion. The .050 diameter rod can be used to reinforce wing leading edges and spars, or as a fuselage stringer stiffener. Either the .070" or the .125" rod can be used as a push rod by inserting it into a Sullivan tube. The threaded brass couplers can be bonded to the rods with a thick CA. Carbon fiber ribbon can be wrapped over the joint and saturated with CA for additional reinforcement. The 1/4", 5/16", and 3/8" rods are being used for wing joiner rods on glider and slope soarer aircraft.

Diameter Tolerance: +/- .005"
