We are having an issue finding 50mm ducting (hose) to go from the "mouse ears" to the heater flapper. What we have is the rather inexpensive cardboard tubing available pretty readily. I am looking for something that is almost a plastic coated duct hose that would withstand dirt and possible....getting wet, and be able to keep clean. We have some in 60mm that is the finish we want, it's just too big.
We have searched high and low and came up scratch. I did find some 50mm plastic hose in the UK, but it only comes in 300mm/30cm (11.81 inches) lengths. I really need something that is 30 inches, 76.2cm or 762mm. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks all, Michael (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Yes, check that OUT! I know what I'd use. 572F working temp! Water resistant! (I was going to mention the cardboard stuff probably shouldn't get wet) Got a "German" look to it... But the absolute most "KILLER" thing about is the inner sheath... This is a BIG problem with brake ducting hoses. The ones with the corrugated inners decrease flow BIGTIME! A 2" hose is the equivalent of a 1.5" with the ribbed inner surface. That has a nice sleeve! I know what I'll use from now on for brakes duct hosing! Reasonably priced as well. @Luke M (ok how can I tag "Luke M") You kick ass Sir! Thanks for that link |
