Satin acrylglas tubes

Satin-finished tubes are offered by specialty stores that deal with the production of plexiglass® tubes. They are produced by the manufacturers through extrusion. They have different properties and find different applications than traditional fully transparent tubes made of plexiglass®. Satin-finished tubes are often used in the marketing and advertising industry because of their color. Similar to other products made of plexiglass®, they are characterized by their resistance to atmospheric conditions and UV resistance. Plexiglass® is a material that does not lose its color and does not yellow even after many years in an urban environment. It can be joined using adhesives. Chemical agents and atmospheric conditions cannot affect it. It resists mechanical damage.

Satin-finished tubes can also be made from polycarbonate, which is much more resistant to damage. However, the costs for manufacturing a satin-finished tube then increase. The material from which satin-finished tubes are made is important because it influences their durability and appearance after several years of use. What type of plastic should satin-finished tubes be made from? This question can be answered if we know where we will use the product. Where are satin-finished tubes used? Thanks to their strength, they can be used as decorative interior design elements, e.g., for chandeliers and lamps, but also in the furniture industry. Here, satin-finished tubes can be used, for example, to reinforce a tabletop and will perfectly match a glass table element.

Satin-finished tubes are excellent as railings in the stairwell of a house as well as outdoors for terraces and balconies. Satin-finished tubes can be cut to any size. There are no problems with their profiling, and depending on the application, their thickness can be chosen freely. This has a direct impact on the tensile and compressive strength of satin-finished tubes.
