Manufactured from high-quality, durable plastics (black, white, and grey) and chrome coloured finishes, these inserts offer a practical solution for enhancing the longevity and performance of your tubing. By providing a snug fit, they prevent dirt, moisture and debris from entering the tube while also creating a sleek, professional appearance.
Perfect for both commercial and domestic applications, Round Tube Inserts are crucial for maintaining the functionality and aesthetics of tubular frameworks, furniture and equipment. Their robust design ensures resistance to wear and tear, making them a reliable choice for a variety of industries.
How to Select the Right Round Tube Insert
Choosing the correct size of Round Tube Insert is key to ensuring a secure and effective fit. The following measurements are important:
- Outer diameter of the tube (in millimetres)
- Wall thickness of the tube (in millimetres)
Subtract the wall thickness from the outer diameter measurement of your tube and this will give you the "To fit tube size" that you need for the tube insert.
