freshwater clear tubing
Folks,

I'm looking for a source for the house freshwater tubing
used in our birds. The stuff in my BB appears to be a clear
PVC with a braided reinforcement. It has a 3/4" inside diameter,
but has very thick walls. I wasn't able to see a PSI spec, or
any writing for that matter, on the hose. It seems to be a lot
tougher than the similar 3/4" clear hose that West Marine
sells.

Thanks,
David Brady

hose. Comes is various sizes.

Folks,

Thanks for the replies, I'm a little disappointed though that the
answer was so simple (lol)! Next time I promise to do more
homework.

David, We use the innerbraid hose for the hydroseeders and not all of
the clear innerbrade is fit for potable use. The good news is the
less expensive types are potable and so listed on the spool. When
fitting the hose I heat up the section in hotwater first

Thanks for the tip Gregory. I'll definitely try heating before bending;
the thick wall stuff can be a bit ornery.
