Item Name:

Asian 25mm Opaque Purple Tubing

SKU:

ACT-OPPUTC25

Description:

Asian 25mm Opaque Purple Tubing is Chinese-made borosilicate color tubing produced in an opaque purple formulation for strong, solid coverage and a clean, graphic look. Because it is tubing, it is manufactured with a consistent hollow core, making it the right starting stock when you need centered geometry and even wall distribution for blown sections, sleeved builds, and larger assemblies. Opaque purple is especially useful when you want the color to read dense and uniform rather than transparent, so the finished work keeps its presence even in thicker areas and under bright studio lighting.

This tubing comes in long straight lengths intended for bench torch work, lathe work, and larger lampworked construction where tubing saves time and helps you keep symmetry. It is sold by the piece.

How it is used:

Opaque color tubing like this is typically used when you want speed, consistency, and a centered bore. Common professional use cases include:

• Sleeving over clear tubing to create an opaque outer layer before shaping, blowing, or pulling down to smaller sizes.
• Building colored sections for vessels, large beads, sculptural components, and technical parts where consistent wall thickness matters.
• Creating bold color bands, collars, and transitions where an opaque layer helps visually unify seals and joints.
• Pulling down into smaller tubing or punty stock when you want the same opaque purple in a different working size.

Dimensions:

• 25mm tubing
• 4' Long
