Heavy-wall & telescoping tubes

Need a heavier wall or a telescoping fit? Send the dimensions, load and handling requirements. NHPT reviews the proposed construction before confirming what it can supply.

Spiral-woundSpec: Length × ID × WallMade in New Hampshire
What to send

Built for

  • Heavier contents and longer spans
  • Telescoping fits for a range of lengths, reviewed per project
  • Projects where wall and construction have to be specified, not guessed

Scoped per project

Send content weight, length, how the tubes are stacked and shipped, and any test requirements. We review wall and construction with you before quoting.

Telescoping fit

Send both tube lengths and the fit you need between them, and we review the construction before confirming what we can supply.

Closures

NHPT makes open-ended tubes and cores. We do not make paper cans or supply plastic or metal caps. If you close the ends, tell us the plug or cap you use so the tube is sized to fit it, and source it from your packaging supplier.

// Questions

FAQ

How strong are heavy-wall tubes?

Strength depends on wall, diameter, length and construction. Tell us the load and how the tubes are handled, and we review the construction with you.

Do you supply end caps?

No. NHPT does not supply plastic or metal caps. Tell us the closure you use and we size the tube to suit it.

What do you need for a quote?

Length × ID × wall with units, quantity, application and delivery ZIP. A drawing, sample or your current supplier's quote helps too.
