I'm in the process of plumbing a new setup and I'm looking for silicone tubing to go from my return pump to the pvc pipe.

I can't seem to find it anywhere in 1 1/4"

I can find vinyl tubing, but its quite stiff and defeats the purpose.

Thanks!

eBay and search for metric sizes. I bought some 32mm x 38mm a couple months ago to use on my 1.25" return but tbh it necked down a bit more than I liked but that's the largest size I could find. I ended up using vinyl tubing and the return still is pretty quiet. I'm not convinced the silicone would make a discernible difference.

If you're interested in some and don't want to wait 30 days for it to ship to you from China, send me a PM. I'm sure we could work something out.
