    Default 5/32" oil lines

    Going to be doing the ring round today to the usual places - probably to be told unavailable - has anyone come across a local supply for 5/32"/4mm bundy tube, as I'm getting zero hits.

    Google suggests, UK might be the best bet, but in cunifer instead.

    Light red, the colour of choice for the discerning man.

    Default Bundy Tubing

    Might be a long shot but try your local brake and clutch mob for copper brake pipe.

    On the same wavelength! Tried Blackwoods and the local brake joint today, as I've bought coil lengths off them both in the past, 3/16" only.

    At Brass and Copper only the other week, I'll have to give them a ring...normally have to bring anything unusual up from Melbourne.

    How much do you need? I've got a coil or so hidden away in 4mm copper. I could spare some.

    I get it in full rolls from Tri-lube services in Sydney.

    Regards Phil.

    Thanks Phil and Aaron, should have fired the computer up this morning for a looksee.

    A visitor today suggests his retired instrument maker father, might have something suitable in capillary tube and grabbed the remnants - I'll see how that plays out - always thought it was typically smaller diameter stuff, so still may need a length if you've got a few machines worth. I'd reckon it would be lucky to be 8"!

    Cheers,
    Bill.
