Square Shipping Tubes
Because of their square shape, these tubes won't roll away. They can be stacked, and the flat surface is easier to label than a round surface. Use them to protect long, thin objects during shipping. They meet ECT 32 (32 lbs. per inch), which is comparable to a 200-lb. burst strength. Edge Crush Test (ECT) standards measure the amount of force a carton can withstand before the edges collapse. Close by tucking tabs into their slots. Shipped flat.

Triangular Shipping Tubes
Easier to stack and label than round shipping tubes, these triangular tubes fit snugly next to one another without gaps and won’t roll because of their low center of gravity. They open along the length of the tube, so they’re easier to pack than round and square shipping tubes that open from the ends. Use them to protect long, thin objects. These tubes meet ECT 32 (32 lbs. per inch), which is comparable to a 200-lb. burst strength. Edge Crush Test (ECT) standards measure the amount of force a carton can withstand before the edges collapse.

Concrete Forming Tubes
Create round concrete bases for small structures, signs, light poles, and mailboxes. Made from specially formulated cardboard, these tubes are lightweight and easy to cut with a utility knife, yet strong enough to hold wet concrete without buckling and swelling, keeping your base's shape. They keep their strength in rain and wet soil for up to 24 hours, so your concrete has time to cure.
Apply a mold-release lubricant (not included) before pouring your concrete and then cut them away when the concrete has hardened, usually after 48 hours. Or leave them on and they'll break down in the ground over time. They're recyclable and comply with OSHA requirements for releasing only trace amounts of hazardous chemicals.
When these tubes will stick out more than 2 ft. above the ground, build frames or side braces to keep them upright and steady above ground.
