Pipe coupler - teflon

[Rick Wallace]

Seems like the tube was Mc Master-Carr part # 5239K19 - here's the line
from the online catalog. 

Min order used to be 5' - seems like they'll accept an order for 1' now.


ID 3/4"
OD 53/64"
Wall Thickness 0.040"
Avail lengths, (ft) Up to 50
part no  5239K19 
$/ft 5.68 
  

 

Website: http://www.mcmaster.com/ also, 
 

For the 4-stroke fans, I've seen a 9" length of a smaller diameter of
this tubing last >2yrs as a replacement for the flex part of a header (
7-9" run between the tubing part of the header and the pipe) on a YS
120. 

 

Hope this helps. 

 

Rick
