I'm pretty sure you can get it at usplastic.com. I ordered 3/8 high temp silicon tubing there at a reasonable price.

Check out www.cooltechnica.com ...

They have similar prices to McMaster, but easier to find what you are looking. I suggest you to get thick wall silicone tubing...

and when shopping... you are gonna want 1/8" wall tubing with a Shore A of 50 for the durometer. this is exactly what DangerDen sells.

is it true that thicker wall tubing means less likely to ..errr.... kink or what ever they call it when you bend at sharp angles....

I have a 3/8'' silicon tube with 1/16 wall thickness... it kinks easily

Just buy from www.mcmaster.com . They have the most selection BY FAR.

yes, the thicker wall will help prevent kinking. DangerDen sells McMaster silicone tubing cheaper or as cheap as if you ordered it from McMaster directly.......................
