Rolling thin wall titanium tube

Rolling thin wall titanium tube

(OP)
Is there another packing matr'l that can be used in place of sand? Trying to fill the tube requires us to "shake/vibrate" the tube so the sand doesn't "cake up" and evenly fill the tube(its about 15 ft lg)
The radius of the roll is about 7 ft. We currently cap the end with a rubber expansion plug. We are afraid to use water because of the pressure issue and safety(there is about 200 pcs to each job)
Thanx in advance ...jeepers
