Beth,
Standard natural rubber tubing works fine. I use 0.50" inner diameter tubing
for the fill and outlet ports on our Bruker Ascend magnet, and it stretches
just fine.

If you want 0.625" inner diameter tubing (makes it a bit easier to fit on the
0.66" ports), then this would be better:

If your institution has academic account access to Fisher, those prices may
be a good bit lower.

Hi all -
This is a ridiculously stupid question, but my Google-fu is currently failing me.
Our exhaust tubing (the type you put on the N2 exhaust port during nitrogen
fills so it doesn't spit everywhere - we have Oxfords and a Bruker, all of
them seem to be the standard dimension) is ratty, and I am currently trying
to replace it. I'm measuring an inner diameter of 1.6 cm / 0.66". It seems
like the sort of thing I should easily be able to order on Aldrich or Fisher,
but I'm failing to find any flexible tubing (rubber or otherwise) of that
dimension.
Does anyone have a link to a supplier of the correct ID of tubing? Preferably
something that I don't need to buy in 100' coils.
This seems like it should be a ridiculously simple thing to find, but I spent
awhile searching and didn't have any luck.
Thank you!
Beth
