Teflon tubing

F

Franc Zabkar

I'm looking for a supplier of teflon tubing in Australia. In
particular I'm after a small quantity of 1/4" OD, 3/16" ID tubing.
I'll be cutting it to length to make bushes for the locating dowels
for the basket in a breadmaker.

Not sure if you have access to a lathe, but RS sell teflon rod. You
might have to buy a metre of it, so could be expensive.

Hydraulic companies may be a source to try, I use to have some
with a stainless braid on the outside for high pressures.

** Maybe you can use brass tubing ?

Hobby shops all sell it in imperial sizes, in 1/32 inch steps.

Some hobby shops may sell Teflon tubing - model boat builders s use it to
run flexible prop drives in.

WARNING!. Unless you know what you are doing, it is hazardous to machine
teflon, flourine gas may be liberated if the temperature of the teflon near
the tool reaches a high enough temperature.
