Important Notes
- Each retail pack contains four tubes measuring 1 metre each. The stated quantity refers to complete tubes, not shorter pre-cut sections.
- Nominal inside diameter is calculated from the outside diameter and wall thickness. Check actual dimensions and tolerances for precision sliding fits.
- Brass tubing may kink when bent sharply. Use appropriate tube bending tools or internal support when forming curves.
- Cutting, drilling and soldering require suitable tools and safety precautions.
- Not intended for certified structural, high-pressure or safety-critical applications without independent suitability assessment.
