    Re-enforced cap tube?



    I got an A-Coil that I need to replace the cap tubes, they rubed through each other due to design incompitance, since I need to replace them I have seen them that have been coated in rhinoplastic coating! where can I get them and how much are they usualy?


    Thanks.

    What's an A-coil?
    It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.

    Where there is a possibility of vibration I use the spiral cut tubing ( the type used in the electrical industry for bundling single core cables together)

    This is easily fitted at any time and gives a lot of strength to the tube. You just have to wind it around and around and around. Ha Ha.

    Ya I know the stuff, I want the plastic coated stuff now, no screwing around. The stuff is lovely, I've come across it twice and no idea the name of it.

    Any one have a 1-1/2 Ton R-22 VGA charge, thermal static? and a 4 tube distributer?

    FOUND IT! http://catalog.tycoelectronics.com/T...T-1-0-FSP&I=13

    Friend phoned me up who knew the stuff. Very nice way to protect the cap tubes from vibration damage and looks great on the tube!
