Complete IC Shipping Tube Packaging Systems
IC shipping tubes are often only one component of a complete semiconductor packaging system. Depending on the application, tube packaging may also incorporate end stop pins, conductive tube plugs, ESD rubber bands, conductive storage boxes, and other handling accessories to protect devices throughout manufacturing, storage, transportation, and production use.
Malaster supplies compatible packaging components designed to work together as complete ESD packaging systems, simplifying procurement while helping maintain consistent component protection from production through final shipment.
Need Help Selecting the Right Tube?
Selecting the proper IC shipping tube depends on package geometry, lead configuration, device dimensions, handling requirements, automation compatibility, and transportation conditions. Whether you’re replacing an existing tube or developing packaging for a new semiconductor device, our engineering team can help identify the appropriate profile or evaluate custom tube solutions tailored to your application.
