305m low friction 0.71 mm ID PTFE tube suitable for pushrod outer tubes on discus launched glider 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.
Can be stretched to 2 times the original length to reduce the weight per meter, and tune the inside diameter to be a perfect fit for the inner pushrod. Sold by the meter. Enter a quantity of 3 for a 3m roll.
