Cores, Shafts, and Chucks in a Digital World

In the early days, Nim-Cor, together with DuPont, the company's fiber tube manufacturer, worked to refine the selection of carbon fibers—including the supra high fiber—to optimize tube properties. This has resulted in tubes having a stiffness equivalent to or better than steel. This fiber provides an even stiffer tube, but while it does not have the strength of the ultra high fiber, it costs less. More recently, Nim-Cor purchased the production plant and now makes its own tubes in-house, enabling it to offer the same quality product at a reduced cost.
