Shaped metal tubes: stronger, safe and more striking
Exporting tube to North America and Europe in as little as 48 hours
Discover the benefits of specifying our shaped tubing and connectors
Timeless have spent over three decades developing our forming techniques, which allows us to offer an unrivalled variety of tubing shapes, sizes and finishes. Our engineers form tubing by carefully cold-rolling round tube using specially engineered tooling; achieving a specific dimension or shape is a complicated process.
Our experienced engineers perform rigorous checks to ensure that tube strength and wall thickness is robust throughout. Discover more about the strength integrity of the tubing by reading our Tube deflection test results.
We work with premium-grade metals from trusted mills. We typically form our tubing from laser-welded round tube, which is stronger, and better joined, than high-frequency welded tube. We can use TIG-welded tube or seamless tube too. But before we select any material, we will talk to you about your application and what is required to ensure we choose the right metal, shape, size and finish. This attention to detail drives exceptional results. Our additional services include fabrication, forming, bending, machining and polishing.
D-shaped Tube for Handrails
With a smooth top, flat section and incredible lateral strength, this clever design prevents water ingress and it is easy to install. Ideal for handrail in public buildings and on marine craft.
Oval Tube
An ergonomic, tactile shape that is perfect for handrails and balustrades in conjunction with structural glass and brickwork. A low-maintenance design commonly used for architectural and marine purposes.
Flat-sided Oval Tube
Clean, rounded lines and a flat-sided profile provide strength for architectural and engineering applications – with a flat side useful for fixing to other elements.
Radiused Square Tube
Blended radius corners and a slight convex side provide greater strength than standard round tubing. This exciting alternative to box section tubing is often used for baluster railings, furniture and grab rails and handles.
Twisted Square Tube
Aesthetically striking, with the power to make a significant impact. Provides impressive strength integrity while being lighter and more cost-effective than conventional solid twisted bars.
Twisted Oval Tube
Innovative spiral forming applied to a classic oval tube design. This stunning twisted tube profile creates a mesmeric effect that is ideal for decorative metal architecture on buildings and boats.
Connectors
Cast metal elbows provide an easier way to join tubes at corners — no need for awkward cutting and welding.
Balustrades
Our twisted metal spindles bring enduring elegance to any staircase or balcony.
