really depends what you mean by "best". you want clarity, look, plasticizer leaching, and the list goes on...

Primo Pro can try APES, they used to have.

Primo has new tubing now. Primoflex Advanced LRT. Got some for myself but kena tax coz I think I brought in too much. doh.gif
Nonsense one la our customs. see luck one. shakehead.gif

btw, Tygon has new plasticizer free, but still flexible tubing. looks like garden hose/gas hose tubing though. laugh.gif

Thanks. I'm looking for "tahan" tubing, that can last long. Don't easily turn color, and flexible. I'm using promoflex black, just wanna change to clear.

lots of mixed input on that. there's clearflex, duralene, xspc, masterkleer and primo (both pro and advance)

xspc and masterkleer can get locally. primo pro not so sure anymore but can try from APES.

duralene and clearflex I'm not so sure about local availability.

reviews are so mixed, can't 100% say which will "work"

Tubing comparison - Feser vs Tygon 3606 vs Primoflex Pro

QUOTE
Kink resistance
Best - Primoflex > Tygon > Feser

Stiffness
Hardest - Feser > Tygon 3606 > Primoflex

Clarity
Clearest - Feser (Blueish) > Tygon (Yellowish) > Primoflex (Light blueish but slightly foggy)

Life span / cloud resistance
UNKNOWN!! IMHO, my bet is that Tygon would still be the best as these are lab grade tubings used to carry chemicals and in peristaltic pumps, where they get squeezed thousands of times before becoming deformed

Bling
Feser!!! The UV effect is cool!
For those who cares, Feser's UV effect is clearer and the colors are transparent under normal lights.
Primoflex's glow is opaque and tend towards over-glow, resulting in a whitish effect. It is also almost opaque under normal lightings although bubbles can still be seen if looked at closely. (I have the UV blue and UV red as well in case anyone's wondering)

I myself using Primoflex Pro and it turns yellow within 1-2 weeks. sad.gif

I order thermochill tubing from Cyntrix. I was told it was better than tygon R3603 not to mention Primo.. My primo tube only took several days to cloud..sucks. Havent use the new tube yet. Only use for testing. So far so good.. Niclos Teoh brought in Koolance clear tube..dont know how good it is compared to Thermochill, Tygon, Primo dan Feser.
