FAQs

Can I fit A1 size documents in these tubes?

No, these tubes are specifically designed for documents up to A2 size, as they are 450mm in length.

Are the end caps reusable?

Yes, the plastic end caps are durable and can be removed and replaced multiple times.

Is the material water resistant?

The cardboard provides basic protection against light moisture, but it is not waterproof.

What is the wall thickness of the tube?

These tubes feature a 1.5mm wall thickness for enhanced crush protection.

How many tubes come in a pack?

This product is supplied in a pack of 25 individual tubes.

Troubleshooting

End cap is difficult to insert

Ensure the document is rolled tightly and pushed completely into the center of the tube so it does not obstruct the rim.

Tube feels slightly bent upon arrival

If the bend is minor, the rigidity of the 1.5mm wall should protect the internal document; however, check the inner contents for signs of pressure markings.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High structural rigidity prevents document creasing
  • Secure end caps ensure contents remain inside
  • Compact 450mm length is ideal for A2 prints
  • Professional appearance for business correspondence
  • Cost-effective bulk packaging

Cons

  • 50mm diameter requires a tight roll for thicker paper types
  • Limited to smaller length documents (up to 450mm)
  • Non-expandable fixed size design

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, verify that your document length does not exceed 450mm to allow for the insertion of end caps. For best results, use a rubber band to keep your document rolled at the desired diameter before sliding it into the tube. When sealing, ensure no paper is caught in the rim of the end cap, as this can prevent a flush seal. Store unused tubes in a vertical or horizontal position in a cool, dry area to prevent warping of the cardboard. If the tube is exposed to extreme moisture, discard it, as paper-based packaging loses its structural integrity when saturated.
