Hollow tubular structures of fibre reinforced plastics material and method for their production

Composite tubes of non-circular cross-section, e.g. a box section, are formed by providing a thin, circular section plastics or metal (e.g. aluminium) tube (2) with an uncured GRP coating (1), reshaping the cross-section of the tube e.g. in a die and the applied uncured coating, and curing the resha...

Zusammenfassung:Composite tubes of non-circular cross-section, e.g. a box section, are formed by providing a thin, circular section plastics or metal (e.g. aluminium) tube (2) with an uncured GRP coating (1), reshaping the cross-section of the tube e.g. in a die and the applied uncured coating, and curing the reshaped coating with the tube still in situ. The GRP coating (1) may be applied by wrapping or drawing a sleeve over the tube (2).
