The Interlocked Tube's metal strip is fully interlocked. This offers superior tensile strenght and crush resistance while allowing full extension and compression without binding. The Interlocked Tube is designed to maintain a particular shape or bending condition which makes this tube ideal for application such as light guides or bundling optical fibers in medical equipment.

The Interlocked Tube also incorporates a cotton thread for waterproofing and vibration absorption. Standard material is stainless steel with optional sheathing.
