This tube is the ideal choice for unobtrusive rigging, scaffolding and formwork positions and flying bars. The semi-matt black finish will not catch the light like self-colour aluminium tube. Aluminium is notoriously difficult to paint so for a long-lasting high quality finish black anodising is the preferred method. The tube is supplied wrapped to protect it during storage. There are occasionally some small witness marks which are part of the anodising process. The tube is extruded in accordance with BS EN755. Aluminium grade: 6082T6. The anodising is carried out in accordance with EN BS ISO 7599:2010.
