[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2095192, member: 4191"] Until there's a good reason to not do so. You realize that if the thermal conductivity is improved longitudinally, that the heat will have to travel a very long distance to reach the end of the carbon fibers in the carbon fiber wrapped barrels I've seen. And that all the carbon fibers are embedded in epoxy resin. Both of these factors act negatively towards the argument that heat flows exceptionally well longitudinally down the length of the carbon fiber strands. [/QUOTE]
