Acrylic Tube Product

Acrylic Tube is a hollow cylindrical made from optical-grade PMMA material through extrusion or centrifugal casting processes. It features exceptional optical clarity (light transmittance ≥92%), lightweight properties (density 1.19g/cm³), and superior impact resistance (17 times that of glass). The inner wall smoothness reaches Ra0.2μm, enabling precise fluid control or light conduction. It supports customized products with outer diameters from 3mm to 1000mm and wall thicknesses from 1mm to 20mm, with a PE protective film covering the surface to prevent scratches. It is widely used in high-end fields such as optics, medical, and decoration.
