Item Name:
Asian 16mm Pink Tubing
SKU:
ACT-PTC16
Description:
Asian 16mm Pink Tubing is a lightly saturated transparent pink borosilicate color tubing made in China. It is produced as straight tubing and supplied in long working lengths so the wall stays consistent as you heat, rotate, and pull points or sections. Transparent pink like this is chosen when you want clean light transmission and layered depth in the finished work rather than an opaque, surface-only color.
This tubing is a practical choice for production work where you want an economical color tube for consistent sections, overlays, and blown forms, while still keeping the look of a true transparent color.
How it is used:
This tubing is used the same way you would use any color boro tube in flameworking and scientific-style fabrication. You can:
- Heat and seal one end to make small blown forms, bulbs, or vessel components.
- Use it as a color sleeve over clear tubing for layered color effects and controlled wall thickness.
- Pull points and make connectors, transitions, and shaped sections where a transparent pink accent is desired.
- Combine with clear to manage color density, keeping the final piece from going too dark when worked hot.
Dimensions:
- 16mm tubing
- 4 ft. lengths
