Item Name:
Asian 9mm Jade Green Tubing
SKU:
ACT-JGTC9
Description:
Asian-made borosilicate color tubing in a jade green 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. Jade green is typically chosen when you want a cooler, denser green that reads smooth and rich in finished work, giving a strong color field that pairs well with clear, white, and many transparent colors for clean contrast and layered compositions.
How it is used:
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. A 9mm diameter is well-suited for smaller hollow components where you want a ready-made tube for quick, consistent results, such as small connections, collars, and compact hollow forms. Jade green tubing is also useful for strong color bands and accent sections, and it can be stretched and necked down to create transitions while maintaining even color distribution through the forming process.
