Plastic tube is a lightweight, extruded, versatile engineering material in round, rectangular and square form. We offer a range of tubing available in a variety of sizes, colours, lengths, diameters and wall thicknesses. The plastic tube can be used for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
What are the different materials?
Acrylic Tube
Acrylic plastic tube is a clear plastic which boasts a range of material properties. Strong and lightweight it is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications including decorative furniture, shop sale displays and illuminated signs.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent optical clarity
- Good UV and weathering resistance
- Good impact strength
- Excellent chemical resistance
PEEK Tube
PEEK is a high-performance polymer plastic. PEEK tubing is used in a wide range of industrial applications where there is a higher risk of exposure to high temperatures and chemicals. PEEK tube is typically used in oil, gas and semiconductor industries.
Features and Benefits
- Excellent resistance to very high temperatures
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Good dimensional resistance (low thermal expansion)
- Tough and strong
Laminated Plastic Tube
Laminated plastic is a material made up of several layers of filler material, (fabric, paper and fibres) that are bonded together with a synthetic resin bonding agent. The tough tubing is readily machinable and is often used for tag strips, insulating sleeves and bushes, busbar supports and insulating spacers.
Features and Benefits
- Lightweight and strong
- Good temperature ratings
- Good abrasion resistance
- Good mechanical and electrical properties
