What is "canvas phenolic"?
Canvas phenolic is a course weave cotton fabric based phenolic laminate with much greater mechanical strength than Kraft phenolics (paper). It is extremely strong, has high impact strength and is waterproof. The tubes are convolute wound over mandrel which eliminates the spiral groves. The tube in the picture is 57" long and 3.0 in diameter. For weight comparison, a 48" length of our canvas phenolic tube weighs 23.04 oz. I weigh 220 lbs. Fly Canvas!
