Our Products

OPT-T-Tube

These forms can be produced from an 8” ID to a 48”. Standard length is 12’ but can be quoted to a custom size if interested. Our state-of-the-art digital printer stamps our logo on these in black ink. Let us customize your logo on these in black or blue ink. These come coated inside and outside with high-quality wax for easy removal.

E-Z Cut

This is our newest product we offer. These forms are available in the same ID sizes as our OPT-T-TUBES. They also come with the water-resistant wax coating on the inside and outside. Our custom-built machine prints one-foot markings along the length of the 12’ cement form for “E-Z” cutting to desired lengths. They are pink in color for high visibility. A portion of the proceeds are given towards Breast Cancer Awareness.

Foam Tubes

Ohio Paper Tube has developed a special foam cushioned tube for the steel companies. We can produce a paper tube wrapped in foam, which help prevent overlap indentations throughout the coil. We cover the core with a high quality black 1/8” foam cushion. These foam tubes can be produced in a wide range of ID’s, lengths, and wall sizes.

Shipping Tubes

Ohio Paper Tube shipping tubes are of the highest demand. These tubes can be produced in a wide range of ID’s, lengths, and wall sizes. They can also be customized with printing. Other variations can be folding tubes, perforated tubes, rewind tubes, and special cuts – for example: slits and slots. We can provide plastic caps, metal ends or wooden plugs for extra strength and protection.

Flap Cores

Our flap cores are customer specific. They are used for rewinding product onto the tubes, such as wrapping paper and plastic, along with other materials.

Recut Tubes

Our small recuts are used as blocking cores with exceptional strength. These can be used for various other applications. Our large recuts are used for rewinding plastic or steel banding, and plastic or copper coils. We do not just sell tubes and cores, we provide solutions.
