What are Rectangular Tube Inserts?

Rectangular Tube Inserts are specially designed plastic components that fit into the open ends of rectangular hollow section (RHS) tubing. Once inserted, they provide a clean, professional finish while serving as a barrier against dust, debris and moisture. They are commonly used in metal frameworks, steel furniture, display systems and construction to cap tube ends, reduce sharp edges and improve safety and aesthetics. The ribbed design allows for flexibility, ensuring a tight fit across a range of wall thicknesses.
