K&S Aluminium Streamline Tube (Imperial)

Aluminium Streamline Tubes are precision-extruded hollow profile materials engineered to combine teardrop aerodynamic efficiency, lightweight structural strength, and outstanding corrosion resistance for architectural scale models, engineering prototypes, and custom craft projects. Featuring a sleek mill finish, these specialised tubes provide architects, model makers, and designers with a unique metal component for constructing scale wing struts, fairings, and streamlined structural frameworks.

Manufactured from high-grade Alloy 3003-H14 strain-hardened aluminium, this material offers superior mechanical strength alongside lightweight performance. The teardrop cross-section reduces wind drag in functional scale models, making it ideal for radio-controlled aircraft struts, automotive racing prototypes, and marine mast details. The tubing can be cut cleanly using a fine-tooth saw or rotary tool, deburred smoothly, and bonded to timber, plastic, or metal using high-strength epoxy resins or cyanoacrylate adhesives.

Available in a broad selection of profile widths, wall thicknesses, and pack options across the product range, these aluminium streamline tubes deliver a practical, professional-grade solution for outfitting architectural features, aerodynamic test models, and detailed dioramas.
