What are the most significant features of the VersaTube® Building System?
The most prominent feature of the VersaTube system is the patented “swaging” manufacturing technique that produces “Slip-Fit” connections for an easier and faster assembly. This allows for the system to be designed using framing components that are manageable in size for easy handling and compact packaging. Another key feature is the mandrel bends side posts and peaks. By supporting the tube with a steel mandrel during the bending process, the side posts and peaks are able to maintain maximum tube strength and display greater product appearance. Conversely, the alternative bending employed in other manufacturers’ steel tube systems oftentimes significantly weakens the tube and detracts from the look of the structure. Many other features and benefits of the VersaTube system are discussed in more detail throughout this site.
