ProfessorQ Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Hi, I'm looking for a supplier of cloth tubing. I can best describe its appearance as 3/4" firehose. I have found the black asphalt stuff but it's not quite right. A woven modern equivalent is polyethylene but it doesn't have the "look". The application is from the headlight, under the guard into the engine bay on my 1952 Holden. As it is most like a Chev I hope someone may know something similar?Paul in Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 What is shown in your photo is the black asphalt loom, it is just older and wiser it takes on that look after a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfessorQ Posted December 15, 2014 Author Share Posted December 15, 2014 Thanks, I would never have guessed that was the same stuff:).Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFranklin Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 That stuff has been made forever and maybe still made by the same manufacturers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProfessorQ Posted December 17, 2014 Author Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) Yep. Now I know what it is I have found it here for $2.30 per foot. Not too bad considering it can be fairly weighty and postage from to US can be expensive over 4lbs.
