DOS Peri Tubing

[Dxpert]

Sorry to revise an old thread. How has the replacement Santoprene tube worked? Does it last as long (or longer) than the OEM tube?

Would anyone be willing to mail a few cut lengths to me? I would cover the shipping/purchase costs.

Replacement tubing has lasted as well as the original. I just replaced the tubing for the second time (about every six months). Unfortunately I just used my last piece. I do plan to reorder - this time a lot more since I know it works. Can you not get it in Canada? That’d be unfortunate - depending upon the outcome of the US election, I may be moving there LOL.

What’s the difference between the santroprene and the pharmed tubing?

I did a bit of research and the pharmed appears to be custom made for parasailing pumps. It’s supposed to last longer. I ended up order 5 ft of it, cost me an arm and a leg once the exchange rate and shipping was added. Here is what I got: https://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.aspx?itemid=25399&catid=864 so far it’s working great

That’s what I got too @Dxpert

Anyone found a good lubricant for this application? I was told Glycerine lubricant is what’s needed, can’t find small bottles of it online.
