BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works.

Rectangular joints use the full rectangle; triangular joints use half of it. Use the intended filled geometry and usable tube volume for your selected product.

Tubes = ceil(Σ(length × width × depth × profile factor) × allowance / tube volume)Calculated with normalised units
