Another Ebay deal - 1/2 inch Silicone tubing

[Waunabeer]

My 100' showed up yesterday. Looks as expected. It's definitely more than I need, but at that price I might as well stock up on it. I needed more now and I never know when I'm going to change/add things to the mix.

Just FYI, if you notice the manufacturers tag, the current stock is in year two of a five year shelf-life. Stockpiling might go past this, especially with hundreds of feet. I don't know how that affects the performance, just thought I'd pass it on.

 

[Waunabeer]

I saw that too. I'm not too worried about the expiration dates. If the stuff starts falling apart in the box then I guess it would fall apart when using as well, but that doesn't seem to happen. It'll probably last 2-4 years past the expiration date no problem; the dates are there so old product is tossed and more is purchased by the hospitals for no reason other than more profits.

Just snagged some... Starting to brew in the kitchen now, and having some extra tubing kicking around will be sweet. Gonna try to get the counterflow chiller going indoors.

If not, I'm sure there will be some in the classifieds soon.

Just picked up 50' from the seller (local pickup = no shipping = $.20/ft!!!!!) Now what to do with the $$ I saved?!

The seller, Nick, is a nice guy who is trying to figure out why his sales have exploded on this stuff. He said that he was shipping at most 5 packages a day and is now shipping anywhere from 50 to 70 packages a day! He mentioned the sales to New Zealand as well.

He is listing only the tubing he has on hand. (about 75 packages in the back of his car currently.) he won't list more than his current supply, even though he can get more from his supplier. So don't be discouraged if he shows as being sold out. He can get more.

Cheers!

Can he get any 3/8"?

 

[Waunabeer]

I bought 100', but may end up selling 50' of it to someone on here who can't get any. I don't think I can ever go through it all.

Someone let me know if they are needing it and cannot get it through the ebay auction. I'll sell it for what I got it for + actual shipping costs.

 

[Flomaster]

I just spoke with Nick on the phone he said after he ships todays sales out he will count what he has left he said maybe 30 more rolls. I asked at 3/8" and he said he's at the mercy of what ever they give me he has to sell. so no he can't pick and choose. they tell him ok here is what you are selling now and he sells it.

Looks like he has some 1/4" if that would work...

Here's 3/8 but I doubt you want that much, lol

My tubing arrived this afternoon. All 100' accounted for. Thanks to the original poster. It's great to get deals like this.

 

[big_al_in_k-zoo]

Mine arrived today, also. MUCH LOVE to XXguy for finding this!

 

[XXguy]

Thanks - but give the props to bbognerks for pointing out the guy who had both the bigger supply AND lower price !

I'm just glad that lots of HBT members could benefit from this.

 

[bbognerks]

Nah we should all thank BrianKeyes. He posted it in another thread and I simply added to this one after xxguy already started it. But thanks though!

I have this tubing but bought it as a whole 50' roll for retail back in 09. It works great for a single tier dual pump system like a Brutus 10. I would like to buy more as this is a great price and so I'm subscribing. I have no remaining tubing left from my original buy.

 

[drumming102]

Damn. Seen this too late

 

[luthierzan]

I really want some!

 

[Flomaster]

I am sure you will see this pop up in the classified at a $1.00 per foot or there abouts which is still 2/3 to 1/2 cheaper than the LHBS or online

It might even show up cheaper than that. I've not yet received mine, but I'm selling some to a few friends for $0.50/foot. I'm not trying to make any money, just sharing the joy. I could sell it for $0.44/foot to be perfectly at cost, but the money is just easier to deal with at $0.50/foot.

 

[wildwest450]

This stuff is definitely a little stiffer and appears to be a tiny bit thicker than the regular silicone purchased from online retailers, ie AHS and BWH. Great find!!!

Just goes to show that anyone that thinks 100-150 feet will last forever are mistaken.

 

[Irrenarzt]

No doubt. I've already lost two hoses, one to a burner and one to a mouse eating at the line to get at some wort inside. Lesson learned, clean your hoses immediately after brewing.

 

[klyph]

Aw man, I need to get in on this when it comes back up. Paying $2 a foot is BS!

Came across this one while looking for more 1/2"

Not mine, but figured I'd help! Good Luck!

[Irrenarzt]

Neither of these is 1/2" x 3/4" (standard size for Brutus rigs)...

 

[bbognerks]

As he quoted in his post, the guy was asking for 3/8...
