Summary[edit]
The Tube SOP generates open or closed tubes, cones, or pyramids along the X, Y or Z axes. It outputs as meshes, polygons or simply a tube primitive.
Parameters - Tube Page
Primitive Type type - ⊞ - Select from the following types. For information on the different types, see the Geometry category articles.
Connectivity surftype - ⊞ - This option is used to select the type of surface, when using a Mesh Primitive Type.

Orientation orient - ⊞ - Primary axis of tube (long axis).
Modify Bounds modifybounds -
Center t - ⊞ - Location of the tube center from the object origin.
Radius rad - ⊞ - The first field is the radius of the top of the tube and the second field represents the radius of the bottom of the tube.
Height height - The height of the tube.
Parameters - Detail Page
Imperfect imperfect - This option applies only to Bzier and NURBS types. If selected, the tube is an approximated nonrational curve, otherwise it is a perfect rational curve.
Rows rows - Number of rows in tube.
Columns cols - Number of columns in tube.
U Order orderu - If a spline surface is selected, it is built at this order for U.
V Order orderv - If a spline surface is selected, it is built at this order for V.
End Caps cap - If selected, it adds faceted end caps to the ends of the tube.
Texture Coordinates texture - ⊞ - Adds UV texture coordinates to the sphere.
