Eastman 1/2 Inch ID (5/8 Inch OD) PVC Clear Vinyl Tubing, 10 Foot Length, 98568

I bought this as a replacement hose for my pool cover pump. It works better than the hose that came with the pump.

Hopefully the smell goes away once it gets aired out. It says approved for potable water use. Looks good and fair price.

Works like it is supposed to. Doesn't kink and is not flimsy.

This tubing appears to be made well and true-to-size. I won't hesitate to buy it again; however, there are two packaging issues that could be improved. The tubing is packaged in a roll secured by three twist ties. The first issue is that the inner loop of the tubing is small enough that it put a kink in the tubing. Using a heat gun, I was able to straighten the kink and make that section of the hose--the last ~10 inches--usable. The second is that the size label is glued onto the tubing and left a significant amount of paper and goo stuck to the tubing when I removed it. My particular application leaves the tubing in plain sight, so paper/goo wasn't ideal. The paper and goo were easily removed with a heat gun. Even if the manufacturer doesn't address those two minor packaging issues, this vinyl tubing is still a good deal.

It is just tubing. It has many uses and has never kinked on me. I use it growing mushrooms and for my aquarium :-)

I had not bled brakes in a while and could not find the DIY bleeder I made years ago, so I figured I would just make another one. After doing the research I determined that the 3/16 ID , 5/16 OD tubing was what I needed. This time I went with the 20ft length so that I have plenty left over for when I lose the bleeder that I just made. The tubing worked perfectly as expected, was clear as described, and was easy to move and bend without kinking or obstructing the oil flow.

Anyone else sick of trying to get lotion out of bottles because the darn tubes used by brands are too short? I'm sorry I have to buy bargain and store brand lotions but do I need to be punished by penny saving crap from manufacturers? Nope, not anymore. This tubing worked perfectly to extend the manufacturer's pump tube in multiple brand lotion bottles. A two inch section heated slightly with a lighter (heat gun or even hairdryer would likely work too) to make it stretchy and pull over the end of the lotion pump tube and voila, longer and flexible end on the tube and NO MORE WASTED LOTION!!! Works great, no leaks, and easy to install. Didn't kink up or pop off. Just thrilled at the results. I literally cut open bottles to scrape out the 2"+ of lotion in the bottom of bottles and now I can just add a bit of this tubing and no more wasted lotion. I also bought a larger tube and it worked perfectly on shampoo/conditioner pumps. 20 feet of this tubing at a great price will save me tons of money and hassle in the future.

It’s tubing. It’s clear. It’s wound up in tight circle.
