Coupler Size for Mintor Header/Pipe

[Bob Pastorello]

Heck, Gray - I would have GIVEN you some to try.....
    The flogging ONLY can occur if you have a properly-ventilated pipe tunnel, and proper distance between header and pipe that the coupler couples.
    It is pretty cool coupler stuff, though....works DANDY.

  I just ordered 3 feet of this. Anyone near Dallas who wants to try it I will give you a piece...If it fails...we can flog Bob in Waco.

  Bob 

  How about a catalog part number??? The thing I hate about regular couplers is that they are so thick that they are heavy. This sounds interesting....and I have at least $9 that I can experiment with.

  There is also TERRIFIC and long-lasting, flexible, 1/8" wall, high temp silicone tubing available from McMaster Carr.  I bought a THREE foot length for about $9....it will make couplers that are VERY flexible, durable, and that length will last for YEARS....

  Moose-Boy, 
   
  3/4"   If you can get the AeroTrends  Ultra Blue silicon part #1039 coupler would work best.  Their phone# is 203-734-0600 if you cant get through your LHD.

  I want to order some spare coupler material for my Mintor.  What is the best size to use (3/4 or 7/8)?   

  Thanks
