Slingshot Latex Tube Sizes — Detailed Ammo Guide (Looped & Single String)
Premium slingshot latex tubes engineered for consistent power, smooth draw, and reliable performance. Choose from multiple sizes — 1050, 1632, 1832, 1745, 2040, 3060, and 3070 — each tailored for specific shooting goals. Whether you use tubes looped (doubled) for increased power or single-string for lighter draw and accuracy, matching tube size to ammo maximizes shot efficiency and band life.
1050 (10mm × 5mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Ideal for small-to-medium steel or clay ammo ~6–8 mm — fast, smooth shots perfect for plinking and target practice. (Light loops excel with lighter ammo.)
-
Single String Ammo: Best with very light ammo like 6 mm steel balls or clay — lowest resistance for comfortable draw.
1632 (16mm × 3.2mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Great for smaller steel projectiles ~8–10 mm — fast snappy shots for target plinking and beginner shooting styles. Especially good for 8 mm balls.
-
Single String Ammo: Handle lightweight ammo ~6–8 mm well with easier draw and quicker recoil — good for extended sessions.
1832 (18mm × 3.2mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Balanced medium tube — ideal for ammo ~9–11 mm steel balls or similarly sized clay/glass ammo, offering stronger hits with controlled draw.
-
Single String Ammo: Works well with ~8–9.5 mm ammo for a smoother, balanced setup that’s easier to pull but still packs punch.
1745 (17mm × 4.5mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Excellent choice for heavier ammo ~10–12+ mm steel or lead — loop setup delivers powerful impact and high energy.
-
Single String Ammo: Handles medium-heavy ammo ~9–11 mm with strong, controlled pulls — great for hunting-style setups.
2040 (20mm × 4.0mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Excellent for mid-to-heavy ammo ~9–11 mm steel or heavy glass — looped increases power for hunting or long-range shots.
-
Single String Ammo: Great for lighter to medium ammo ~8–10 mm — balanced energy transfer with smoother draw.
3060 (30mm × 6.0mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Heavy-duty powerhouse — optimal for large ammo ~11–12 mm steel or lead projectiles; best in looped configuration for maximum force.
-
Single String Ammo: Suitable for heavy ammo ~10–11 mm if draw strength allows — strong resistance and high energy output.
3070 (30mm × 7.0mm)
-
Looped Tube Ammo: Ultra-heavy performance — strongest tube in the line, ideal for large steel or lead ~11–12 mm+ projectiles when looped for maximum acceleration.
-
Single String Ammo: Best with the heaviest projectiles ~11–12 mm and above if the shooter has high strength and long draw — extremely powerful pull.
Key Features
-
Precision-crafted natural latex for longevity and consistent elasticity
-
Sold in cut-to-length strings or pre-looped sets
-
Easy to attach to most slingshot frames
-
Works with both looped (more power, higher resistance) and single string (lighter draw, better control) configurations
👉 Pro Tip: Looped tube setups increase power and speed and are generally recommended for heavier ammo or hunting use. Single-string configurations provide smoother draws and are ideal for lighter ammo, target practice, and longer sessions. Always match tube size and ammo weight for optimal performance and band life.
