Plain Tubing (Product Page)

Aluminum tubing is one of the base components of our favorite style of robot construction. Tubing tends to be stronger and stiffer than plate construction due to its shape while still being lightweight because of its hollow profile. We offer:

• 2"x1" rectangular tubing: 1/16”, ⅛”, 0.09375" wall thickness

• 1"x1" / 1.5"x1.5" / 2"x2" square tubing, 1/16” and ⅛” wall

Punched Tubing (Product Page)

We offer a variety of aluminum punched tubing. Made from 6061-T6 aluminum, it features 0.50" punched hole spacing for convenient and versatile mounting options. Aluminum tubing is both durable and lightweight, and commonly used throughout all of FRC.

Punched Aluminum Tubing Features:

• 0.0625", 0.09375", 0.125" wall thickness

• 0.50" hole spacing for more mounting flexibility

• #10 clearance holes

• 47" lengths to reduce shipping costs

• Made of 6061-T6 Aluminum

SplineXL Tubing (Product Page)

The SplineXL Tubing can be used in a variety of applications, including feeder or intake systems.

Our spline profile was inspired by the farming industry which has been using spline tubes on PTO applications. The profile allows for some neat stuff:

• Easy to machine in-house

• Can transfer torque via the rounded star profile

• The rounded shape allows for future telescoping applications

• Ball shifting capabilities

• Ability to add bearing or bushing to the ID

• Acts as a clocking feature for easy setups

Polycarbonate is a great solution for making simple brackets and sponsor panels. These 0.5mm and 1.5mm thick sheets of smoked polycarbonate will come in 3’ x 6’ sheets. The 1.5mm thick sheets are great for thinner brackets and the 0.5mm thick sheets are great for sponsor panels and can even be cut with a pair of scissors.

Shaft Stock (Product Page)

WCP offers several different lightweight shaft stock options made from both 6061 aluminum (for tube axles) and 7075 T6 Aluminum (for high-strength hex shafts handling torsional loads). These shaft lengths are correctly toleranced such that they fit perfectly through bearings and hubs, without extra work.

While it's tough to get excited about a few pieces of shaft stock, these shafts are specifically created to reduce user frustration.

Hex Stock

Our Hex Stock is perfect for handling torsional loads, ensuring optimal performance in high-torque applications such as winch and climbing mechanisms.
