Tricot tube

Buy Tricot Tube

Tricot Tube is a flexible and elastic tube material that is pulled over foam rubber before the final covering is applied. The tube acts as a protective sleeve between the foam and the fabric, making it easier for upholstery to slide over the foam. This intermediate layer creates less friction. This helps to limit wear on the foam rubber and upholstery fabric and ensures a tighter and more even end result.

Ordering and delivery

Tricot Tube is available per meter, with a minimum purchase of 1 meter and subsequent steps of 0.5 meters. You can choose from variants with a diameter of 30 cm or 50 cm, depending on the size of the foam rubber. Because Tricot Tube shortens when stretched, it is wise to order approximately twice the length of the foam rubber. For orders over €99, you benefit from free shipping.

Application and benefits

Tricot Tube protects foam rubber and makes covering cushions, panels and seating parts easier. The tube ensures that covers and upholstery fabrics slide more smoothly over the foam. This is especially useful for seat cushions, back cushions, furniture upholstery and projects where the cover must fit tightly around the foam. The elastic structure helps to distribute the material neatly without unnecessary folds or deformation.

Processing

Simply slide the Tricot Tube over the custom-made foam rubber. Pull the material evenly taut and ensure there is sufficient overlap at the edges. You can neatly fold away the excess tube fabric under the upholstery. If necessary, use spray adhesive to temporarily hold the tube in place before applying the top fabric.

Maintenance and durability

Tricot Tube is low-maintenance and wear-resistant. You can remove any dirt with a slightly damp cloth. Due to the protective effect, the foam remains better protected during use and processing. This makes Tricot Tube a practical choice for both professional upholsterers and do-it-yourselfers.
