Columbia Predator 42" Cam Lock Compound Tube
The Columbia Predator Cam Lock Compound Tube gives drywall professionals a lightweight, durable tube built for smooth compound flow, fast head changes, and easier handling on long finishing runs. Made as the carbon fiber version of Columbia’s cam lock tube, it is designed to reduce arm and shoulder fatigue while maintaining the strength needed for daily jobsite use.
Built from carbon fiber with U.S. aluminum and steel components, this drywall compound tube is significantly lighter than traditional metal tubes while resisting dents, corrosion, and everyday wear. The stable temperature feel also keeps the tube warmer to the touch compared to aluminum, making it more comfortable to use in cold conditions.
Cam Lock Design for Fast Set Compounds
The cam lock system uses brass cams on a stainless steel lock ring for a simple, secure connection. Columbia designed this system with firehose-style locking technology, making it especially useful when working with fast set compounds where a positive lock and quick cleanup matter.
