Transporter_GW Posted November 24, 2006 Posted November 24, 2006 Hey I need help in selecting tubing (1/2") for my WC system. I am looking at the following tubing:Clearflex 60, PrimoFlex, or Tygon R-3603 Just not sure on what to select, any input, PICTURES or thoughts on this?

Xavior Posted November 25, 2006 Posted November 25, 2006 Depends on how tight the bends are going to be and if you're worried about your tubes clouding up. Tygon is best, but also the most expensive. I prefer 7/16''ID Masterkleer. Very cheap, but a great alternative to Tygon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightshadow Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 I use clearflex 60. Being that it works just fine and seems to be very well made, I have no problem with it. Tygon is great so I hear, but it is about twice the cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoetuS Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 I also prefer 7/16''ID Masterkleer, but I have never used Tygon before. Everything I hear about Tygon is that its great, but expensive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Septem Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 What's the difference between Tygon and the stuff they sell at Home Depot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoken Joe Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 Depends on how tight the bends are going to be and if you're worried about your tubes clouding up. Tygon is best, but also the most expensive. I prefer 7/16''ID Masterkleer. Very cheap, but a great alternative to Tygon. Yes Trygon is the best but the Masterkleer is a close second and much cheaper. You can get 1-2 foot of the Trygon for the tightest loop if needed. Tygon is by far the clearest if that matters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Transporter_GW Posted November 26, 2006 Posted November 26, 2006 Thanks for all your input, i will stay with Tygon even though the price is $$$. This time around i went from 1/2" to 7/16" for tubing. I will try to post pictures once its all done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
