Roger Lee Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 You can get it at Ace Hardware or Home Depot. It's just 1/2" OD x 3/8" ID clear poly tubing. FD used to use it .Been using it on CT's since 2006 on all wing pulls. I even have videos here of old hose that felt stiff, but bends without any issue. It's not under and stress so it just sits there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyingMonkey Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 I was initially skeptical of the cheaper vinyl tubing Roger recommends, but I have used it on two tube changes now and it does work great. It's still plenty strong at the two year mark when it gets changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
