PrimoChill 90 Degree Pre-Bent 12mm ID x 16mm OD Rigid PMMA/Acrylic Tube – 200mm x 500mm – 4 Pack PrimoChill

Frosted 90 Degree Pre-Bent Rigid Acrylic/PMMA Tube from PrimoChill is made from strong acrylic and is designed to withstand high temperatures and chemical corrosion better than other plastics. Some users prefer Acrylic tubing over PETG for its higher melting point, more stain-resistant properties, superior clarity, and scratch resistance. With PrimoChill tube, you can achieve tight bends without excessive compression fittings or 90-degree angle rotaries. This reduces the time and money you spend searching for a suitable fitting for your build.

Installation

PLEASE NOTE: When using a bending insert with rigid tubing, remember it is meant to have a tight fit. If it is loose, the rigid tube will collapse, kink, and form air pockets and flat spots when heated. The tighter the fit, the better the result. This process requires patience but will become easier the more you practice.

The bending insert requires stretching and lubricating in the rigid tube. The steps to success are below:
1. Stretch the bending insert. Remove any excess that isn’t stretched.
2. Ream the rigid tube with an RFB for best results (or a hand reamer if that’s all you have). This will ensure a clean opening for easier insertion.
3. Lubricate by applying several drops of dish soap or olive oil on the bending insert itself and then place several more drops into the rigid tube.
4. Work the bending insert into the rigid tube. The more you use the insert, the easier this process will become.
