Postal Charges

England, Wales & Scottish Lowlands
75 cm items will be sent in a postal tube by Royal Mail. 150 cm items will be sent in a long postal tube by courier - this increases the postal cost.

UK Islands, NI & Scottish Highlands
All items will be cut down to 75 cm length and sent by Royal Mail unless this postal charge is added to the basket.

Europe and Rest of the World
75 cm long items will be sent by Airmail post at low cost. Longer items will be sent by courier - this will increase the shipping charge considerably.

If even numbers of 75 cm long items are ordered we reserve the right to send half the number of 150 cm items to simplify packing.

Good quality tubes delivered very promptly as usual. As mentioned the ID is Slightly smaller than7 mm so quite a lot of sanding is required on a 7 mm tube, or rod, to make it fit inside.

8mm Carbon Tube

This is lighter and thinner-walled than similar tubes I've bought elsewhere. Looks good and arrived quickly.

Great products, Great service

Excellent. The tube is much much lighter (i think the lightest available in the webmarket) than expected and very strong. I think also that this is the only 8mm tube with 1mm tickness size available in the webmarket.
The shipment also was so fast and in a perfect package.
I'm very happy and i can just say Thank You so much from Italy.

8MM Carbon tube

Good quality - fits with a bit of twisting in the 9.8mm OD Wound Carbon tube from Hyperflight (tight-ish interference fit) - prompt delivery and good quality as ever from Neil. Spot On !

Another great purchase.

Again, good value, rapid delivery. Hyperflight does get delivery and pricing right - I was stuck with missing bits for a build, and it was delivered in only two days. Keep it up!


 Review by:

Good value, rapid delivery, and good quality: this tubing is accurately made and cut without the usual fibre "feathers" at each end.
A slight mix up with ordering was rapidly and politely sorted out to help get my build back on schedule.
Hyperflight will be getting more of my business!

Product was OK, but I felt that P&P was too much and delivery was slow


 Review by:

Exactly as wished.
Tubes are strong yet slightly flexible and have a completly smooth surface.

Great price but just as important well packed so you can actually use it when it turns up

Carbon tube for yacht masts

I purchased 3 x 1.5metre x 8mm carbon tubes for making model racing yacht masts and booms. It's ideal for this, being very light, very stiff thin walled tube, and as such needs very little rigging to retain a straight mast. If the qualities of the material are understood, and attachment points supported, the product is the best material available.
The communication and service provided by Hyperflight were excellent, the packing very robust, and delivery was speedy and efficient. Carriage charges are high for this length of tube, but multiple purchase (and consequent per - tube reduction in packing/ delivery cost) makes the deal excellent value in comparison to other suppliers. Hyperflight will certainly be my 1st port of call next time I need carbon tube.

Good quality carbon tube that maintained a very consistent inside diameter. Very impressive service ordered late afternoon but still delivered next day.
