How about:

virtual void vtkTubeFilter::SetNumberOfSides(int<http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/vtkVectorOperators_8h.html#a61569f2965b7a369eb10b6d75d410d11>
 )

tubeFilter->SetNumberOfSides(4);

should produce a square cross section I think.

If you need a non-uniform cross section (like a non-square rectangle), I
think this can do it:

If you try it, it would be great if you could add an example of that class
to the wiki.
