305m low friction 1.07 mm ID PTFE tube suitable for pushrod outer tubes on gliders and other small models. Also suitable for a large range of engineering and industrial uses.
This tubing is specially etched on the outside, making it easily bondable using many adhesives, thin CA being probably the best. Provides the lightest, easiest, most friction-free pushrod installations possible.
