# Understanding pull-winding, a unique manufacturing technique for composite tubes
## Fill the form to watch the on-demand webinar
OEMs around the world are looking for smarter materials to forward-think their products by combining high mechanical performance with lightweight design and long-lasting durability. In this webinar, composite experts from Exel Composites explain the benefits of a unique continuous manufacturing process for composites profiles and tubes called **pull-winding.**
Pull-winding makes it possible to manufacture strong, lightweight and extremely **thin-walled composite tubes and profiles** that meet both demanding mechanical specifications and aesthetic needs. The possibilities for customizing the profile’s features are almost limitless — and because pull-winding is a **continuous process**, it is well suited for high volume production with consistent quality.
Access the on-demand webinar by filling the form on the right and learn why you should consider pull-wound composites for your product.
**Learn more about the webinar agenda and hosts below.**
### Access the webinar
## Your pull-winding webinar agenda
1. Introducing pull-winding, and how does it compare to other composite manufacturing technologies like filament winding or pultrusion
2. What are the benefits of pull-winding and how can it achieve thin-walled profiles?
3. Practical examples of product challenges solved by pull-winding
4. Q&A session
## What is pull-winding?
Pull-winding combines the two techniques of **pultrusion** and continuous filament winding resulting in a profile with excellent hoop strength, longitudinal strength and modulus, with smooth surface finish. Pull-winding is very similar to pultrusion, with the main difference of adding cross-wound reinforcements. This allows layup configurations with both unidirectional and cross-wound (off-axis) fiber alignments. Exel Composites is a global leader in both pultrusion and pull-winding manufacturing of composite profiles and tubes.
