FAQs
Can these tubes fit A3 paper?
Yes, these 330mm tubes are specifically designed to fit A3 sized documents rolled width-wise.
Are the end-caps reusable?
Yes, the plastic stoppers are designed to be removable and reusable.
Can I use these for international shipping?
Yes, they are suitable for international mail, provided they are properly labeled and the end-caps are secured.
Is the material water-resistant?
No, the tubes are made of standard Kraft cardboard and are not water-resistant. Protect them from moisture during transit.
How many tubes are in the pack?
This pack contains 25 individual postal tubes.
Can I fit two posters in one tube?
Yes, provided the total diameter of the combined rolls does not exceed the 50mm internal capacity of the tube.
Troubleshooting
End-cap keeps falling out
Apply a small strip of shipping tape over the edge of the cap to secure it to the tube body.
Document is too difficult to insert
Ensure the document is rolled tightly and evenly; use a rubber band to hold the roll in a slim configuration before sliding it into the tube.
Tube arrived slightly dented
While minor surface dents are normal, if the inner diameter is obstructed, do not force the document in as it may tear; try rolling the document tighter or using a different tube.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents document creasing and folding
- Durable Kraft material for transit protection
- Convenient bulk pack for high-volume use

Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for these postal tubes. To maximize the longevity of the materials, store the empty tubes in a cool, dry environment, as high humidity can weaken the cardboard structure. When using the tubes, ensure the internal surface is free of debris to prevent scratching your documents. If the tube becomes damp during transit, the structural integrity may be compromised; therefore, store and ship in a way that minimizes exposure to rain or liquid spills.
