In this work the quality of the slim-tube packing was demonstrated, the inner diameter and porosity was determined by using X-ray computed tomography. The literature analysis of slim tube packing over was carried out. It is noted that in all cases of slim tube does not accept the most theoretically possible dense rhombic packaging. Moreover, the presence of interstices due to loose contact of the grains to each other illustrates the technological limitations when filling out. To confirm the absence of signs of defective packing, it is recommended to check the quality of the slim-tube.
