Externet Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 (edited) Hi. Does anyone know if deformable oval plastic pipes/hoses/tubes exist ? Like to return to their oval/flatter section shape when emptied; getting rounder to 1/2" with the fluid pressure increase to 100 psi; capable of being attached to round fittings ? Seen only some garden hoses being like that, but would like to find something more sturdy/durable. Edited June 23, 2010 by Externet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyhook Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 How about fire hose ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewmon Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 I've used ½" clear tubing from home construction supply stores that comes wrapped on spools, so they tend to be curved and flattened, and also reinforced for durability. How long a piece would you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xittenn Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Flat! They probably take an oval shape when they are being used..... I think there are also many flat type hoses that are essentially a bunch of single hoses in one and connected at a common output and input .... the Red-X one seems appropriate.
