Great supplier of Hypodermic Tubing

I recently discovered a great site to purchase hypodermic tubing for all kinds of uses in our hobby. This place has all sizes, thin and regular walled tubes, and very understandable dimensions. Sizes are explained that so that you can acquire telescoping tubes if that is your need. I did find it helpful to have a conversion chart in front of me when choosing sizes. But the site was easy to navigate and the cart was easy to fill and make any changes. They took my payment, processed the order with no hassles. I received my package in great shape in about 3 days. I highly recommend ! Rick

Wow lots of interesting materials. Thanks for the link!

Thanks for posting this Rick, recently used some in a build and been wondering where to acquire it in lengths!

Do they have a minimum order, and if so, how much?

No minimum orders, Don. They can do it in bulk or in small purchases.

Awesome link! This thread just reminded me that I’m throwing out a lifetime supply of pitot tubes and gun barrels. We’re having to give one of our cats subcutaneous fluids every night due to her failing kidneys. She’s doing well for now, and in an effort to keep her healthy, we use a new needle every night. I’ve been throwing the old ones away!!! GASP!

Anyway, how do you trim these things? They’re sharp, and tough. What’s the best way to cut and trim? Thanks, and sorry for the hikack!

Gene, when I use them, I use a cut-off disk in my Foredom motor tool. Then, I file away any rough edges.

I’ll try with my Dremel, then. Thank you.
