Cardboard Tubes Types and Terms
Cardboard Tube Types
- are any
tubes made from spiral wound cardboard material. They serve
many purposes from cores for various products to storage containers
and shipping purposes.
- is a small paper tube used to hold specific monetary amounts of coins of the same denomination.
- are tubes made from composite paperboard, which
is a layer of fluted material sandwiched between two layers of linerboard.
- are tubes made from fiberboard
and can be used for individual roll storage, to protect sensitive
fabrics from crushing, to separate
secure small lots, to provide a location for return goods and to make "bottom" rolls
accessible when an entire roll is not cut.
-
are cardboard tubes that paper products are rolled up into for compact
shipping that does not bend or crease the material being shipped.
- ,
also called mailing tubes, are tubes, potentially having graphic advertisements
printed on them, which are used for the express
purpose of shipping items that fit conveniently in a tube. End cap
materials include wood, metal or paper.
- is a large, water-resistant cylinder paper form used in concrete pouring applications.
- are tubes
that are typically spiral wound and used for any material that requires
a center, including such things as paper
towels, fax paper rolls, tape and film products.
- are
composite containers typically made from paperboard material with an
inner liner that provides a
protective barrier. Thicknesses
and sizes vary, as do types of closures and label options.
- have
longer cores.
Cardboard Tube Terms
- A package comprised
of a body with two ends made from a variety of materials and available
in many shapes and sizes. The container bodies are paper tubes and various
liner materials to achieve barrier requirements and a printed label for
package graphics of paper tubes.
- The fluted
middle portion of a corrugated boxes or paper tubes that are made from paperboard
and typically produced on a Fourdrinier
machine as a single layer, using varying combinations of virgin and recycled
fibers.
- The paperboard produced from recycled fibers
on a cylinder machine consisting of multiple plies that are bonded together
in the papermaking process.
- Rigid metal caps,
film caps, plastic caps, paper caps or paper structures that are mechanically attached to the
end of a package or a layered plastic
film, foil or paper membrane heat-sealed to the end of a rigid package.
- Paper tubes,
Cardboard Tubes, and cores of paper or plastic that
serve as product carriers for film tubes, paper tubes, tape tubes, textile
tubes, metal tubes and
more. The carrier tubes are highly engineered to permit take-up of these
materials at extreme speeds.
- A composite material made from compressed wood fibers
and glue.
- A machine divided into a wet end, a press
section, a drier section and, typically but not always a
calendar section that is employed in the manufacture of all grades of
paper tubes and board.
tube - A coarse paper made from a type of chemical wood
pulp, whose color is dark brown but may be bleached to lighter shades
of cream. Taking its name from the German word for strong this
paper is typically used for wrapping and packaging.
- The core elongated mold around which resin-impregnated
fiber, paper, fabric, tape or filaments are wound to form pipes, tubes
or structural shell shapes.
- A flexible material attached to the end of a
rigid package with a peelable heat seal. This material can be a
coax plastic film or a layering of plastic film, foil or paper with a
heat-seal coating.
- A subdivision of paper that is generally heavier in
basis weight, thicker and more rigid than paper. All sheets of 12 points
(0.012) or more in thickness are considered paperboard with some
exceptions, such as blotting papers, felts and drawing paper in excess
of 12 points, while some corrugating medium, chipboard and linerboard
of less than 12 points are still categorized as paperboard.
- Paper and paper derivatives separated, removed
or diverted from solid waste disposal for the purpose of sale, use, reuse
or recycling, whether or not such material necessitates further separation
and processing.
- The process in which cut ribbon of cardboard,
coated with adhesive is wrapped in a helix pattern around a set round
mandrel to produce spiral wound paper tubes. It`s done at
an angle that will produce a continual flow of product that can be cut
to any specification.
