Description:

Asian 12mm Blue-Green Tubing is transparent blue-green borosilicate color tubing manufactured in China. It is supplied as straight tubing intended for flameworking and scientific-style fabrication where you want a clean, consistent color layer that still transmits light. This blue-green is a workhorse color for builds that need depth without going opaque, and it is especially useful when you want to keep internal structure visible while shifting the overall tone of the piece. Because it is sold as full straight pieces, it is well-suited for repeatable production work such as color sleeving, sectioning for assemblies, and pulling down into smaller tubing or cane for linework.

How it is used:

This tubing is typically used by cutting a section to length, heating evenly to avoid chill marks, and then using it in one of a few standard ways: - Sleeve work by collapsing the tubing over clear or another color to create a uniform jacket before further shaping - Pull-down work by heating and drawing into smaller diameter tubing, cane, or stringer for consistent line and wrap application - Component building by using a short section as the starting blank for small blown forms, transitions, or decorative sections where transparent color and light transmission are part of the look In practice, transparent blue-green is a great choice when you want rich color that stays readable under studio lighting and does not visually “flatten out” once the wall thickness changes.

Dimensions:

- 12mm tubing - 4 ft lengths
