About Plastic

Pressure-Rated Borosilicate Glass Tubes

These short glass tubes can be used as glass bowls in oil dispensers.

Borosilicate Glass Tubes

Also called Pyrex and Schott glass, these glass tubes resist clouding and pitting and are highly chemical and heat resistant.

Ultra-High-Temperature Quartz Glass Tubes

Blistering temperatures won’t melt these quartz tubes, and rapid temperature shifts won’t cause them to crack.

Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Cast Acrylic Tubes

Cast acrylic is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. It's comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic.

Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Acrylic Tubes

This extruded acrylic offers similar performance as cast acrylic at a lower cost.

Clear Impact-Resistant Polycarbonate Tubes

At only half the weight of glass, polycarbonate maintains excellent impact resistance across a wide temperature range. It's comparable to Lexan, Hyzod, Tuffak, and Makrolon.

Clear Easy-to-Form PETG Tubes

PETG can be formed into complex shapes without sacrificing durability.

Clear Cellulose Tubes

Widely used as shipping tubes, this cellulose is also known as butyrate.

Chemical-Resistant PVC Tubes

Because PVC resists many acids and alkalies, it’s widely used for tanks and in chemical-processing applications. Also known as PVC Type 1.
