Methods, systems and products involving sheet products
A method for forming a tubular sheet product roll includes providing a sheet product roll having a first configuration and a void, centering a rotational axis of the sheet product roll on a longitudinal axis of a first tool, and inserting the first tool into the void of the sheet product roll to define an inner diameter of the void and to form the sheet product roll having a second configuration different from the first configuration.
1. A sheet product comprising:
a length of a wound first sheet product material defining a tubular roll having an outer diameter; and
a semi-rigid core portion comprising the first sheet product material defining an outer diameter of a void portion concentric to the outer diameter of the roll, the void portion having a plurality of layers of the wound first sheet product hardened non-uniformly across a cross section of the void portion such that there is a hardened first core portion and a hardened second core portion on opposed ends of the void portion,
wherein the first core portion includes an indented portion concentric to the outer diameter of the roll, defining an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the void portion, and
wherein the second core portion includes an indented portion concentric to the outer diameter of the roll, defining an outer diameter greater than the outer diameter of the void portion.
2. The sheet product roll of claim 1 , wherein the first and second core portion includes an impregnated adhesive.
3. The sheet product roll of claim 2 , wherein the impregnated adhesive includes polyethylene glycol.
4. The sheet product roll of claim 1 , wherein the indented portions are flared.
5. The sheet product roll of claim 1 , wherein the indented portions are curved.
