Engine Plumbing Tube from EDS 199613

The EDS 199613 Silicone Tube offers a straightforward tubing option for model engine plumbing needs. This 1 metre blue silicone line is flexible enough for tidy routing while standing up to routine use.

Typical Applications for Modellers

Employ the EDS Silicone Tube for fuel lines, breathers and short transfer runs on nitro models. Its silicone composition helps reduce kinking and copes well with heat and vibration encountered during running.

Material Benefits for RC Plumbing

Silicone tubing is chosen for its thermal tolerance and elasticity, which helps maintain steady fuel flow. The EDS 199613 provides a mix of ease of fitting and durable service for regular use.

Is this suitable for nitro engine fuel lines?

Yes, silicone tubing is routinely used with nitro fuels and offers good compatibility with common model fuels and oils.

Can it be used for vacuum or pressure runs?

It is suitable for low pressure fuel and venting duties; avoid using it where high pressure is required without confirming the fitting and clamp security.

What is the best way to check for wear?

Regular visual checks for cracks, stiffness or thinning are the easiest way to spot when replacement is needed.

How should I cut and finish the ends?

Use a sharp knife for a straight cut, trim any burrs and test fit with the clamp and connector before final assembly.

Does colour affect visibility at the track?

The blue colour makes lines easier to trace during setup and checks, which can speed up troubleshooting at the pit area.
