Acrylic Hexagonal Tubes

Hexagonal PMMA tube in four stock sizes. Mostly specified for decorative lighting, display plinths and architectural features where a six-sided form reads differently from a plain cylinder.

How we make it hold up

Two process steps that do not show in a photograph and do not show in the box, but decide whether the part is still sound a year after you built it.

Every acrylic tube is annealed before it ships

Extrusion leaves stress frozen into the wall. You cannot see it in the box — it shows up later, as crazing round a drilled hole, a crack after solvent bonding, or a web of hairlines weeks after the part went together. We heat and slow-cool every acrylic tube to relieve that stress before it leaves the factory. It costs us a process step that a lot of extruders skip, and it is the reason our tube machines, bonds and cleans without going milky.

UV stabiliser and anti-ageing additive as standard

We run a UV stabiliser and an anti-ageing additive in our acrylic on every job, not as a priced option you have to know to ask for. PMMA is already the most weather-stable of the clear plastics; the additive package is what keeps it from yellowing at the edges over an outdoor service life.

Frequently asked

What do "across corners" and "side length" mean?

Across corners is the distance between two opposite corners — the widest measurement. Side length is one flat face. Both are given so you can check the fit either way.
