I'm looking to use a CF tube for a length critical application with absolute minimum axial thermal expansion, would pultruded or roll-wrapped be better for this application?
If there is any data regarding the thermal properties of each to compare the two types that'd be brilliant.

its depends entirely what kind of accuracies you are looking at
