DU-BRO554 5/32" x 3' I.D. Tygon Tubing

This worked great to repair a kinked line on a Chinese Diesel heater from the fuel pump to the burner tube. I had a hard time finding Tygon tube in 5/32 in fact this was the only place I could find it online in a reasonable quantity.

Nice soft Tygon, what's not to like

Fits perfectly on my Craftsman 4-cycle weed trimmer. Need to get used to the color since the original was green and this is yellow. Thanks to all those who posted tips on how to install it. Cutting the tip diagonally to get it started thru the hole was exactly what you need to do. Adding a little light oil lube onto it makes it so much easier. Don't pre-cut the length before you start as you may end up with the tubing being too short in the end. For the overflow side, there's a black stopper on the gas tank end which needs to be put back on. Cut the old tubing against the gas tank side of the overflow, then push the end into the gas tank with an ice pick or similar pointed object. Similar to reinstalling the fuel filter, you'll need to pull the tubing into the tank first, then pull the tubing out with a hook, install the stopper, then pull it back in the tank. Final part of it is to full the tube back out until the stopper seats itself against the inside of the tank. Final part is then to cut to the correct length to connect at the engine side. Always cut the engine side last before connecting!

My HomeLite zip-start trimmer would no longer start. While tugging on the starter one day, I noticed the fuel lines (supply line, and primer return line) were no longer attached to the gas tank. They appeared to have disintegrated at the tank ports! Some online research had me believing the Ethanol now commonly found in gasoline is not compatible with the tubing used by manufacturers, at least not when this trimmer was made, and the ethanol will eat away at the original tubing. Luckily, the fuel filter and retaining clip were still in my gas tank, so all I needed was some new tubing. More online research convinced me that this Tygon tubing was the appropriate choice.After I received it, I cut some pieces to the appropriate size, removed the fuel tank from the trimmer, and got to work. Inserting the tubing was extremely difficult, but I do believe this is the right size tubing, as it makes a tight, leak-free seal on the holes in the tank. So I pushed and pushed and twisted and twisted and finally got it in. The fuel filter was installed on the supply line, and the unit reassembled. Filled with oil-and-gas mix and the trimmer finally started.

I have been hardcore into R/C hobbies for almost 30 years and I can say that Du-Bro has always provided high quality items for a reasonable price. For that very reason, when I needed some fuel tubing to upgrade a leaf blower, I didn't hesitate to buy Du-Bro fuel tubing. I was not disappointed!! I received the same high quality product that I expect to get from them and the price was on par with anyone else. This is a company that makes things in America (can you believe it???!!!), so I'm proud to support them. Thank you, Du-Bro!!!!

This is what I use on all my gas RC airplanes. Dubro is a great trusted name.

I use alot of this stuff for my rc boats.My escs and motors need lots of water and this tubing works great.

The alcohol in modern gasoline is destroying many older tools like my 2 cycle chainsaw and line-trimmer. This Tygon tubing is the perfect upgrade repair. It eliminates the problem of cracked, broken, and leaking fuel lines. If you look closely at new gasoline powered tools in the hardware stores, you'll often see the fuel lines have the tell tail yellow Tygon fuel lines. The old clear vinyl aquarium hose just doesn't hold up with the new Ethanol formulated gasoline.

Arrived on time works great
