Round tube insert Ø 27 mm, green

The green Round tube insert Ø 27 mm is a finishing component that closes the open end of a tube and gives the structure a neat, uniform appearance. Sold individually in units of 1 piece.

Design and installation

The insert consists of a flat flange that sits against the end of the tube once fitted, and a ribbed internal section. The ribs press against the inner surface of the tube and hold the insert in place once pushed in. The internal section is designed for tubes with wall thicknesses within the range stated in the specification, allowing the same insert to fit several tube variants with an outside diameter of 27 mm.

Applications

Plastic inserts of this type are commonly used where an open tube end is unsightly or could collect dirt. Before installation, check that the tube's outside diameter and wall thickness are within the range stated in the specification.

Choosing the right insert for the tube

Two dimensions are essential when choosing an insert: the outside diameter of the tube and its wall thickness. The flange height, length of the internal section, core dimension and rib dimension are also important, as they determine how the insert fits in the tube. Comparing these values allows the installer to quickly verify that the insert is compatible with the tube to be closed.
