Abstract
A method for the production of thermoplastic tubes comprising: (1) extruding the thermoplastic tube of which the interior surface in a molten state by a heating unit disposed within the area of a mandrel near the nozzle of an extrusion mold, and (2) sliding the interior surface of the tube on an additional mandrel supported to the front end of the mandrel through a heat-insulating material in axial alignment with the hollow mandrel in a manner to bring the interior surface of the tube into contact with the smooth surface of the additional mandrel and simultaneously cooling the interior surface of the tube with a cooling medium.
