Corus has successfully developed an electric resistance-welded aluminium tube which is suitable for hydroforming, offering lightweight design and performance benefits for vehicle manufacturers ...

Made from extruded aluminium, the tube can hold rolled paper up to A2 size at its standard length. An extension section can be screwed on to the top to lengthen the tube to hold A1 sheets.

"Aluminium pipe could possibly be the world's most anonymous material but that doesn't mean you can't make outstanding work from it." Crimped corners add visual interest.
