Square and rectangular metal tubing are among the most commonly used robot construction materials in the FIRST Robotics Competition world. Most of the time, teams will use welding or gussets connected to holes in the tubes to mount parts to tubing, but not every team has access to welding, and sometimes gussets don’t easily accomplish teams’ design intent. Our solution to this is Tube Plugs! Tube Plugs are:
Sized to fit 1"x1", 1.5"x1.5", 2"x1" and 2"x2" square tubing
Sleeves available to account for thinner tube wall thicknesses
Tapped #10-32 on all 6 primary faces
Designed to support a variety of attachment methods
Energy chain is the industry standard for cable management, especially when it comes to moving systems. WCP carries both Semi-Enclosed which is useful for elevators and Bi Directional energy, typically used for turrets.
