I require a 4.8mm O/D finished size tube , concentric to the bore .. can you supply unfinished ground O/D material , for me to produce my own ground finished diameter ? Leaving me more material on than the 5mm size you supply ?

Thanks

Hi Offyman,

Unfortunately we do not manufacture the tubes in house so are unable to supply them part finished as you request.

Thanks for the fast reply , can you give me an idea of standard concentricity ?, as if it is reasonable I still may have a chance of achieving my requirements.

I've already ordered , some material in woven and pultruded to try anyway .

The tolerances on the tubes are +-0.1mm at that size.  The pultruded tubes have no lacquer on them so you should be straight into the carbon.  The woven finish tubes, it depends how thick the lacquer layer is.

The woven finish tend not to be perfectly concentric (OD to ID) especially on the smaller diameters; by comparison, the pultruded tubes will have a much more accurate concentricity of the outside to inside diameter.
