Patent abstract
A composite material and framework structure adapted to be utilized as a piston and cylinder apparatus. A cylindrical tube composed of a composite material is compressed between two end caps at the axial ends of the cylindrical composite tube. Beam elements extend between the end caps and maintain the compression force on the cylindrical composite tube. The cylindrical composite tube comprises a continuous glass fiber reinforced structure embedded in a resin matrix. The resin matrix provides a self contained lubricant system in a resin rich layer, the lubricant system migrating to the inner surface of the cylindrical composite tube.
