FishBrain Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Anyone know where I can get Flexable tubing that wont kink when bent? I think it is that tubing that has the wire wrapped around inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ichthyosporidium Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Matt, what diameter are you looking for. I can get this stuff WAY, WAY cheaper for you than you will find anywhere in Alberta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vic Posted November 16, 2006 Report Share Posted November 16, 2006 Another alternative would be a dairy supply store. Cheers; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mighty Prawn Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 I got some at Home Depot this weekend. 4.99 a foot. Quite pricey, I thought. It doesn't kink when it is bent, but it does compress and get thinner. -Hideo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichthyosporidium Posted November 17, 2006 Report Share Posted November 17, 2006 You use a barb fitting and use a Stainless steel T-bolt style clamps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronrca Posted November 18, 2006 Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 I buy my 'flex' pipe also at Home Depot for $0.91/feet. This pipe is located in the electrical section where the grey conduit is and seems to be a flexible pvc pipe. It is used for electrical wires however is liquid tight, nonmetallic and stable. Unfortunately, the only sizes it comes in is 1/2" and 3/4" however. The 3/4" fits nicely inside 1" PVC and can be glued with the same glue as PVC pipes.

FishBrain Posted November 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2006 Thanks to everyone. I have found a source for it and am hoping to have it by tuesday. The stuff is pricey but cant complain as it is worth it. I have seen the flex that you were talking about Hideo but I dont want it to get thinner when bent either. there is a place here in town called GreenLine hose and fittings as well. They would have any type of hose and size you could possibly want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
