FAQ

PyraSied has the largest stock in transparent acrylic tubes XT and GS (Plexiglass®, acryl glass) of the Benelux. You can order the transparent extruded tubes per full length at our website in various diameters and wall thicknesses. If you want the tubes cut to size, then this is possible as well! We can cut the tubes to size for our customers. This can be indicated in the comment section when ordering the material. Please indicate the number of sawing cuts that are needed. The acrylic tubes are optically pure, strong and can be fabricated by us. Please note: cast acrylic tubes are optically more pure than extruded transparent tubes. Cast tubes are advised for optical applications.

Stock transparent acrylic tubes XT

On this page, you can see the available stock of all our extruded acrylic tubes. For bigger transparent diameters, we are having tubes made of cast acrylic on stock. Bigger diameters in XT acrylic is on request. We are having extruded acrylic tubes on stock with a diameter of Ø 12 mm up to 250 mm with varying wall thicknesses: 2, 3, 4 and 5mm. The tubes are only sold per full length (2 meters), but we can cut the tubes to the desired size for you if you like.

Applications

Acrylic tubes are used in the stand- and exhibition building, in the furniture/interior design and mostly for technical applications (reactors). Also known are the water bubble columns, the so-called bubble tube. We can seal the tubes for you waterproof. The tubes are only sold at full length, but we can tailor the tubes to you. Acrylic tubes XT are fairly UV stable and weather resistant, but they are not designed for long-term outdoor use. Ultimately they will yellow. For optical applications, we recommend to use cast acrylic tubes.

Fabrications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between cast acrylic and extruded acrylic?

There are two main types of acrylic, cast and extruded acrylic. An advantage of cast acrylic is that it is easy to produce in small quantities, which offers flexibility. Extruded acrylic has the advantage that it hardly knows any thickness tolerance.

When do you choose for acrylic and when do you choose for polycarbonate?

Acrylic is optically more pure than polycarbonate. Polycarbonate, on the other hand, is much more impact-resistant than acrylic, but yellows faster.

Can I order samples of tubes?

It is possible to order samples of clear, satin or opal tubes. These samples are meant to be able to look at the type of tube and its surface. Since we only sell tubes and rods per full length, we do not have residues. That is why it is not possible to order samples of every diameter and wall thickness.
