1/2" ID by 5/8" OD silicone tubing for pump?

Hey hows it going, I'm in the market to replace my tubing. I saw this stuff

1/2" ID
5/8" OD (Compared to the 3/4" offered on most brew sites)

I'm wondering if this will work, the pricing is great. Specs say burst pressure is 15 PSI... since march pumps only generate about 5 PSI I should be good to go? Or is there another factor I'm missing?

the 5/8 od hose kinks more readily when hot. I would spend the little extra and stick with the 3/4 od

Cool thanks, didn't think of that.

IMHO, I have the best silicone tubing available for the price. Check it out and decide for yourself ;-)
