Refitech has expanded its range of smart square carbon fibre construction solutions.

The RefiFLEX programme now also includes the new 40x40mm High Precision tube with a standard length of 1600mm, as well as the corresponding connectors RefiFLEX 40S.

Further Refitech can now supply the construction system UD carbon fibre pultrusion profiles from its Italian partner CarboSix’ to its customers in the Benelux. The profiles have integrated mounting slots allowing them to be screwed rather than glued together to form frames, using a variety of fixing materials.

“We see a growing demand for lightweight systems,” said Bas Nijpels, sales engineer at Refitech. “As a result more and more mechanical engineers are starting to use our carbon fibre tubes and profiles. This in turn has led to increased requests for larger sized tubes, in addition to our highly successful 20, 25 and 30mm RefiFLEX tubes. Like its smaller RefiFLEX stable mates, the new 40x40mm HP is smooth inside and out, ensuring the connectors can be glued on to fit perfectly. By combining the different RefiFLEX elements, lightweight frames for all kinds of applications can be constructed with ease.”
