1/2" ID X 5/8" OD X 100' Roll Black Vinyl Tubing, 1/16" Wall Thickness, 30 PSI Working Pressure
This Black Vinyl Tubing, commonly referred to as “vinyl tubing”, “PVC tubing”, “plastic tubing” and “flexible tubing”, is lightweight and flexible and is widely used in water gardens, aquariums, fish hatcheries, and a multitude of other industries for transport of liquids, gases and some light solids. The clear tubing has been formulated to meet applicable 3A, and NSF criteria and California Proposition 65 and may be steam sterilized. Black vinyl tubing is recommended in water gardening applications since it resists bacteria and algae growth and is generally not able to be seen in ponds and water gardens.
Manufactured to have a smooth interior and exterior, our vinyl tubing prevents solid or sediment build up and is practically incapable of bacterial growth. It is lightweight, strong, yet very flexible and can easily hold up under situations requiring rough handling. Our Vinyl Tubing is easy enough to work with for almost anyone to use. Trimming or cutting it is simple, most sizes can but cut with scissors or heavy duty shears (it can also be cut with PVC pipe cutters). Black vinyl tuning easily conforms to barbed fittings and connectors. The smooth interior reduces friction, boosting your efficiency and lowering your overall operating cost. It also coils easily for storage and transport.

What our Vinyl Tubing is NOT intended for:
-
High heat situations. Our Black Vinyl Tubing is great for many applications, but it is too pliable and soft to work well in situations where you are venting hot air, such as furnaces, water heaters, wood burning heaters, etc. Do not use our black vinyl tubing in these situations, even for temporary situations, because the high heat could cause the tube to collapse or bond, potentially causing a hazardous situation.
-
Situations where there is “constant” or “high” pressure. Water flowing through the pipe is not considered “constant pressure” or “high” and is normal. Constant pressure is created by flow being stopped at one end of the pipe for long periods of time.
-
Drinking or “potable” water situations. Our Black Vinyl Tubing is lightweight and flexible, and it resists many types of chemicals, but we do not recommend its use with foods, beverages, or drugs.
