ABSTRACT:
Lightweight tubular drive shafts having noise and vibration dampening characteristics, and capable of operating at high speeds without significant misalignment between their geometric axes and their axes of rotation, are prepared by forming the shafts so that the walls thereof are a composite of a plurality of layers of carbon fibers in a solid resin matrix wherein the fibers are disposed circumferentially and helically about the longitudinal axis of the shaft.
