fiberglass tubing

(OP)
Hello all,

I am looking for a non-conductive fiberglass tube.

this tube needs to be approx. 7/16" OD by 5/16" ID..and it needs to be able to withstand 2000 psi of hydraulic oil..

I have been looking everywhere locally and no one carries this stuff..

any help would be appreciated..

thanks,
brent

RE: fiberglass tubing

I've used FRP tube in larger sizes, and found that you had to pay extra to get a good surface finish on the outside ... and that surface was cosmetically very nice, but not uniform enough to use with an o-ring.

So, assuming you can get the stuff, how do you terminate it?
