JLON supplies HDPE spiral tubes designed for resin distribution in vacuum infusion processes. The spiral structure allows resin to flow through the tube and exit along its length, helping distribute resin across composite laminates.
Available in multiple diameters and wall thicknesses, our spiral tubes are suitable for marine, wind energy, and other fiberglass and carbon fiber composite manufacturing applications.

Efficient Resin Distribution
The open spiral structure allows resin to flow through the center and exit along the tube, providing a continuous resin distribution channel during vacuum infusion.
Strong HDPE Construction
Made from HDPE with a sturdy tube wall, the spiral tube is designed to resist deformation under vacuum pressure during composite processing.
Flexible Installation
The spiral tube can be positioned along resin feed lines and laminate edges to accommodate different composite part shapes and infusion layouts.
Cost-Effective Infusion Consumable
HDPE spiral tubing provides an economical solution for resin distribution in composite vacuum infusion processes.
Customizable Specifications
JLON offers various tube diameters, wall thicknesses and spiral pitches to meet different resin flow and processing requirements.
Marine & Boatbuilding
Used as a resin distribution channel during vacuum infusion of fiberglass and carbon fiber composite parts, including boat hulls, decks and other marine components.
Wind Turbine Blades
Used in resin distribution arrangements for vacuum infusion of composite wind turbine blade components.
Industrial Composite Manufacturing
Suitable for vacuum infusion of fiberglass and carbon fiber composite panels, structural components and other FRP products.
During vacuum infusion, the spiral tube is positioned along the designated resin feed path, typically beneath the vacuum bag.
When vacuum is applied and resin is introduced, resin flows through the hollow center of the tube and exits through the spiral openings along its length.
This allows resin to be distributed along the feed line before flowing through the laminate, often with the assistance of an infusion mesh or other resin flow medium.
The tube diameter and placement should be selected according to the part size, resin viscosity and infusion layout.
What is a spiral tube used for in vacuum infusion?
A spiral tube is used as a resin distribution channel in composite vacuum infusion. It allows resin to flow along the tube and exit through the spiral openings, supplying resin to the laminate.
What material is the JLON spiral tube made from?
JLON spiral tubes are made from HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), offering flexibility and resistance to deformation during vacuum infusion.
What sizes of spiral tubes are available?
JLON offers multiple sizes, including 8 × 10 mm, 10 × 12 mm and 12 × 14 mm. Larger sizes and customized specifications are also available.
Can spiral tube be used for fiberglass and carbon fiber composites?
Yes. Spiral tubing is commonly used for resin distribution in vacuum infusion processes involving fiberglass and carbon fiber composite laminates.
Can JLON customize the spiral tube diameter and pitch?
Yes. JLON can supply spiral tubes with different diameters, wall thicknesses and spiral pitches according to customer requirements.
What is the standard packaging length?
The standard roll length is 100 meters. Please contact JLON to confirm packaging options for specific sizes.
