SNAP TOGETHER TUBE ASSEMBLY AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS
New methods and self-clamping snap configurations are disclosed for improved production of hollow tube profiles made from polymeric resin reinforced with glass fibers. A continuous hollow profile is constructed from two or more non-hollow pultruded rails that are assembled together. Specifically, each rail may be formed with snap members that extend along the rail's entire length. The snap configuration is self-clamping to permit the rails to be adhesively bonded without the need for external clamps during assembly.
