TD-31040 Outdoor & Aluminium Furniture Tube Closing Machine | Rattan, Garden and Patio Furniture Tube Ends
Outdoor furniture tube ends: keep water out, keep the plug off
Garden chairs, sun loungers, patio tables, parasol frames and rattan sofas live outside. A plastic end plug turns brittle in the sun and falls out, and an open tube end lets rain in, so the tube rusts or corrodes from the inside. TD-31040 cold-spins the tube end into a one-piece dome: nothing to fall off, no gap for water, and a smooth end ready for powder coating.
Rattan and wicker furniture frames
Synthetic (PE) rattan is woven over aluminium or steel frames. A closed, rounded tube end gives the weave a clean start and finish with no sharp edge to cut the strands, and no plug that pushes out under the weave.
Aluminium furniture tube
- Cold closing without welding: thin aluminium tube is closed with no heat, no distortion and no weld to grind.
- The dome radius is adjusted on the machine without a mold change.
- A center hole can be left open for drainage, for glides and feet, or for air and liquid to escape during galvanizing and coating.
- Decorative roll grooves on aluminium tube (see videos below).
