There is provided a plastic extrusion sizing tube having a cylinder with a
split along its length to allow for radial expansion and reduction of the sizing
tube. The cylinder has holes to allow an extrusion within the cylinder to be drawn
to the cylinder by a vacuum outside the cylinder. The cylinder also has extensions
on opposite sides of the split with an adjustment screw connecting the extensions.
The diameter of the cylinder can be expanded or reduced when the adjustment screw
is turned in respective directions. A set screw can be connected to one of the
extensions. The diameter of the cylinder can be expanded or reduced when the set
screw is turned in respective directions. The diameter of the cylinder can be locked
in a desired position when the adjustment screw and the set screw are turned in
the same direction. The adjustment screw and the set screw can be located in a
flange at one end of the cylinder. The holes in the cylinder can be slots.
