Carbon fiber composite rods manufactured in pultrusion, for industrial and energy applications.
Our composite rods are manufactured in pultrusion in our French factory in Gaillan Médoc according to the strictest industrial standards.
- Epoxy matrix (or other specific matrices as required),
- High Strength (HR / HS), Intermediate Modulus (IM), High Modulus (HM) or Very High Modulus (THM / UHM) carbon fiber depending on the mechanical requirements.
- Function integration (optical fiber, thermoplastic protective layer, glass fiber insulating layer…)
- Customized section (from Ø3mm to Ø30mm)
- Custom length, up to 10km
