Tube Drawings (1).pdf

This is a technical drawing specification from the USDA Pocatello Supply Depot detailing the requirements for a gas cartridge tube and cap assembly. The drawing shows specifications for a cylindrical fiber tube made of spiral wound kraft paper, measuring 6.0" in length with a 1.548" outer diameter (OD) and 1.5" inner diameter (ID), with a wall thickness of 0.048". The top closure consists of a manufacturer-inserted cold glue pressboard cap that is 0.25" in height. The separate gas cartridge cap has dimensions of 1.50" diameter and 0.25" height with a 0.030" wall thickness.

The drawing provides precise measurements and construction details that would be required for manufacturing these components for the USDA's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). This technical specification appears to be part of a larger sources sought notice seeking suppliers for spiral wound, fiberboard gas cartridge tubes with loose caps, with potential order quantities ranging from 5,000 to 200,000 units for various configurations.
