Shipping tube

A shipping tube is a tube used to ship rolled sheet materials such as paintings, photographs, or posters, or for long and narrow objects such as fishing rods. Shipping tubes are typically cylindrical, but they may also be triangular prisms.[1][2] Shipping tubes may be made of paperboard, corrugated fiberboard, or plastic.
