tubing rated for year-round use on a trailer running through hot summers and hard winters, or is there a temp range i should be worried about?
Answer by: Customer Support on Oct 4, 2025, 6:57 PM
Rated from -65°F up to 200°F, this tubing holds up across some pretty extreme conditions. Whether you're dealing with a July heat wave on black asphalt or a January morning in a deep freeze, the operating range covers it without issue. The UV-stabilized polyamide construction also helps it hold together when it's sitting in direct sun for long stretches.

got a tight bend behind the trailer axle. how tight can i bend this green line without kinkin it
Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 20, 2025, 6:58 AM
For tight routing, the minimum bend radius on this tubing is 1.5 inches. Staying at or above that radius helps it keep its shape and flow without kinking.
