Acrylic Tube - Clear

Acrylic tube maintains the workability of acrylic sheet in a tube form. There are two different manufacturing methods used for making acrylic tube:

Cast Acrylic Tube
Manufactured by casting the acrylic into the required tube size - this is called cast acrylic tube and gives the best optical finish available. Additionally, cast acrylic tube offers a range of large outside diameters up to 650mm.

Other advantages of using cast acrylic tube:
  • highly polished
  • manufactured to exact specifications to ensure exceptional quality
  • display quality
Extruded Acrylic Tube
Produced by extruding the acrylic into the required tube diameter - this is called extruded acrylic tube and provides an economical alternative to cast acrylic where aesthetic finish is less crucial, but the outside diameter available is limited to a maximum of 300mm.

Main advantages of using extruded acrylic tube:
  • available in small diameters from 5mm OD
  • economical alternative to cast acrylic tube
  • good manufacturing tolerances
