Plain
End Tube
- Universal's Thinwall gate tubes are
exceptionally light weight due to a 3/8" wall
thickness. This reduces shipping costs and provides
for easier handling in the foundry.
- Available in lengths upto 28".

Matching
End Tube
- Matching end tubes eliminate the uses
of a spruce stick and guarantee that the effective
diameter of the spruce and gating system is maintained.
- The matching end tubes have 13/32" wall
thickness and are slightly heavier than the plain end
tubes.
- Available in standard lengths and specialty
lengths.

Bent
Tube
- UNIVERSAL Thinwall bent tubes are refractory
pouring tubes which replace the horn gate for bottom
poured castings.
- Their use provides a smooth, non-turbulent
flow of metal into the casting.
- They are available to radii of 17" and
greater depending on the diameter of the tube.

Strainer
Cores
- Composition SC-28:
These strainer cores are made
of UNIVERSAL developed formula and are suitable for use
with any metal where the temperature does not exceed
3250 degree F.
- Composition K-148:
For casting manganese, bronze, and similar alloys, the K-148 composition
is recommended. This composition is of low porosity and
is suitable for use where a long time lag exists between making
and pouring the mold.
- No spalling or erosion will occur during
pouring with either UNIVERSAL SC-28 or K-148 compositions.
