Tubes

Tubes are generally hollow core cylinders that can be used to support large flexible objects in a rolled configuration so that they can be handled with minimal flex. Tubes are generally made of a rigid material such as acid free cardboard, but polyester sheets or rigid plastics can also be successfully used.
