<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN class=EmailStyle15><FONT face=Arial color=navy
size=3><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Just so every one knows this tubing is
used for water line services mostly to and inside of house services. It has a
high burst pressure and has a high temperature rating making it ideal for hot
water use. Some municipalities allow this tubing to be used to plumb whole
houses. It comes in several sizes and normally joined using a tool that
expands the tubing and then is inserted onto the fitting. It has a high memory
which when heated to the point that it turn’s clear and tied into a knot will
when reheated return to it’s original shape. It is true it is available at Mc
Master Carr but they do not sell to the modeling public but instead to the
industrial trade. <SPAN style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>It may also be
available at the local industrial plumbing store but they may not have the
size you need in stock as the size modelers use is smaller than most water
lines in homes. The largest size I have seen is ¾”. <SPAN
style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </SPAN>I have lots of this tubing in my drawer
but never use it as 2-cycles don’t need it. Just thought a little history
behind the source of this tubing would be of interest. Of course there may be
many more uses that I am not aware of.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></SPAN></P>
