for anyone who wants a little tip on how to get this tubing on your 1/4" barbed fittings.
boil water, dip end of tubing in water, use snap ring pliers to spread the tubing while hot, turn pliers 90 degrees and spread other side. quickly get the tubing onto your barb fitting, if you can't get it on in one shot, heat it again and try and ram rod the barb in there like a virgin on prom night.
the first couple took some getting used to, but now I can get a barb on in one shot like shoving a hotdog down a hall way.

Can you ever get this off the fittings...will a utility knife cut if off?
yes, an earlier post indicated you can cut it with a utility knife just like Bevlex. the material is just more rigid than the bevlex or standard beer line

It's a slow pour but ends up with perfect head in the glass.
I still have 1/2 dozen folks who haven't responded (or paid) to any of the postings and PM's i've sent. Please contact me asap. I'll wait until the 17th and i don't hear back from you i'll re-allocate your line to the waiting list.

IrregularPulse said:Mine should be coming within the next day or so. Has anyone tried a Heat Gun for shrink tubing? I'm not keen on taking a flame to it. Don't want to melt or leave char marks on it.
It's a four tap keezer at 38*, 11psi and a one foot rise from kegs to shanks. I used to have five foot 1/4" vinyl tubing. That setup resulted in 2/3 glass of foam on the first pour every time. After a few pints last night I may actually knock two feet off the accuflex line for a faster pour.
