Thin-wall

What is thin-wall tubing

Thin-wall tubing is a type of cylindrical hollow structure typically made of metal, plastic, or other materials. As the name suggests, thin-wall tubing is characterized by having a relatively thin cross-sectional wall compared to the overall diameter of the tube. This design feature results in a tubing that is lightweight and has a smaller outside diameter relative to its inside diameter, making it useful for various applications where space and weight constraints are important. This tubing is often used in applications where reducing weight is essential, such as in the aerospace and automotive industries. The thinner walls help minimize the overall weight of the structure without sacrificing structural integrity. The tubing can be manufactured in various sizes and shapes to meet specific requirements. This flexibility in design allows for customization to fit the needs of different applications.
