    About this Product

    Metal tubing requires careful shipping and handling to maintain structural integrity. Use pallet racking for efficient stacking, and protect individual lengths with banding or shrink wrapping. Ensure proper aisle widths for forklift access and label inventory with barcode systems for traceability.
