'''Vacuum Tubing''' used everywhere wears down over time. It absorbs oil and doesn't hold as much air pressure as it used to. | |||
There is basically three types of vacuum tubing. The first is rubber high vacuum hose and is a high quality, special, thick walled, rubber hose. Number two is clear PVC tubing you can get either thick wall clear or wire reinforced clear. The third possibility is flexible metal hose made of stainless steel or brass and generally terminated with a quick release flange of some size. We can also add fittings to the end of any hose and affix clamps of your desire. From a cost standpoint, the clear PVC tubing is the least expensive, red rubber next and finally the flexible metal hose. | |||

Vacuum Tubing used everywhere wears down over time. It absorbs oil and doesn't hold as much air pressure as it used to.
There is basically three types of vacuum tubing. The first is rubber high vacuum hose and is a high quality, special, thick walled, rubber hose. Number two is clear PVC tubing you can get either thick wall clear or wire reinforced clear. The third possibility is flexible metal hose made of stainless steel or brass and generally terminated with a quick release flange of some size. We can also add fittings to the end of any hose and affix clamps of your desire. From a cost standpoint, the clear PVC tubing is the least expensive, red rubber next and finally the flexible metal hose.
