Asian 50mm Amber Yellow Tubing
ACT-YTC50
Asian-made borosilicate color tubing in an amber yellow formulation, produced as a consistent, machine-drawn tube that provides a uniform hollow starting point for flameworking. Color tubing is used when you want continuous color coverage and a predictable wall without having to build a hollow form from solid rod, which saves time and helps keep wall thickness even as you inflate and shape. Amber yellow is commonly chosen for warm, golden work where you want a color that reads bright and traditional in finished pieces, pairing well with clear, black, and many transparent accents for strong contrast and classic color combinations.
This tubing is used as a hollow blank for lampworking. A typical workflow is to cut a section, fire-polish the ends, and then either seal one end to form a bubble or attach a handle or blow tube so the tube can be evenly heated and inflated. The 50mm diameter is well-suited for very large hollow bodies where you want maximum starting volume and a bold, uninterrupted color surface, such as oversized vessels and large sculptural components. Amber yellow tubing is also useful for strong color bands, collars, and accent sections, and it can be stretched and necked down to create transitions while maintaining even color distribution through the forming process.
We do not cut anything over 38mm for the safety of our team members.
