Polycarbonate Tubing

[alex_holt]

Does anyone know of a possible source of polycarbonate tubing - Im looking at approximatly 80mm internal diameter and 3mm wall thickness (I cant remember the actual name of that measurement).If anyone could possibly help with this could you either post it here or email me at 99089@bwctc.northants.sch.uk.Thanks in advance for any help.

I would suggest you contact a plastic supplier such as DEP on 01462484595

Worth checking ebay - 80mm inner diameter is quite large for polycarb tubing though.

Thanks - that was part of the problem really - I havent had any problem finding up to 40mm, but beyond that I havent had much luck. But thanks so far, the more suggestions the better.

I have a supplier who can deliver it up to XXX mm diameter

Thicker wall tough

How much thicker? It doesnt matter to a great degree within reason - up to 8mm prehaps?

If possible could you give me some kind of contact details thanks. Havent had any luck on eBay - they only appear to have sheets, Ill be getting onto DEP later (or possibly just my schools DT technician might)

Thanks for the help, any other suggestions are welcome (my schools policy on cost of DT products is as little as possible)

like 10mm for a 100mm od tube.

But Im afraid cost is prohibitive.

could you try heating and rolling a sheet, then melting it to itself? Just an idea.
