Polytunnel Foundation Tubes from £3.50

Our Foundation Tubes are designed specifically for use with our range of Polytunnels, featuring a swaged end for secure assembly. These tubes are suitable for quick and straightforward installation, particularly when constructing Polytunnels onto a soil base.

Installation Options

Foundation Tubes may be anchored directly into concrete for enhanced stability, or alternatively, they can be used in conjunction with Anchor Plates. Both methods provide reliable support for the structure, depending on site requirements and user preference.

We offer Foundation Tubes in four different sizes to accommodate various specifications. Please refer to the table below for detailed information regarding each tube size.
