What Are Aluminum Cartridge Tubes? The cartridge tubes are rigid, cylindrical containers designed to hold and dispense high-viscosity materials (often under pressure) such as various sealants and adhesives. Unlike soft, collapsible tubes, rigid aluminum cartridge tubes do not collapse due to their thick and rigid walls. Main Components of a Rigid Aluminum Cartridge Tube 1. Tube Body Cylindrical, seamless, or minimal seams. Formed by impact extrusion. Wall thickness ~0.3 – 0.5 mm for rigidity. Often lacquered inside for chemical resistance. Printed or lacquered outside for branding. 2. Bottom Closure Usually one of these designs: Separate piston (plunger) Many cartridges have a plastic piston inserted at the bottom: Moves upward as the […]
