Bladder Tubing Supplier

Post by Dane McGee »

Just a heads up for anyone needing bladder supplies.I usually buy my tubing from McMater Carr, but I have been searching for the colored tubing like George Cleveland used to sell.

I found these folks that some of the control line combat guys have used to buy tubing. I have used the colored tubing and I know it sounds nuts but it lasts longer and holds up better than regular latex tubing. Perhaps it has an outer layer with the color, dunno......here ya go:

I've bought from them in the past. No problems and quick shipping from what I recall.

Update: I have used this tubing at the last two events and it is performing superbly.
I even use the same piece of tubing for weeks for test flights around home with no problems. Good stuff!
