Fabrication of various carbide fibers from carbon fibers and elementary powders of Ti, Zr, Nb, Zi, W, B, and Mo by self-propagating high temperature synthesis was attempted. It was found the almost pure phase of TiC, ZrC, NbC, SiC, $B_4$C, and $Mo_2$C carbides were successfully produced. The three types of morphologies were ob-served, TiC, ZrC, NbC, and $B_4$C had a hollow-type fibrous shape. SiC had fiber shape consisting of smaller particles and fine whiskers. WC and $Mo_2$C had non-fibrous shapes. The reason for the different morphologies was explained. The formation mechanism of hollow fibers was suggested.
