An exact cylindrically symmetric solution of Einstein's gravitational field equations is given for a null fluid imploding radially along an infinite axis. This solution plays an important rôle in the late stages of collapse of a long cylinder of matter. One might expect that self-gravitational effects due to the increasingly relativistic mass of the collapsing matter would create arbitrarily large gravitational fields. It is shown, however, that in the null-fluid approximation the metric is everywhere regular.
