Q:Can plastic tubes be used for underground applications?

Yes, plastic tubes can be used for underground applications. Plastic tubes, such as PVC or HDPE, are often used for underground applications like water and sewer pipelines, electrical conduits, and cable ducts. They are corrosion-resistant, lightweight, durable, and can be easily installed and maintained underground.

Q:What is a paintball power tube used for?Im looking into an tippmann A5 power tube Delrin Front Bolt. Whats the difference and benefits.Thanks

The power tube is the part that holds the valve in the marker and helps direct air flow. Getting a new power tube will do NOTHING to performance. It has no performance valve what so ever. The front bolt is the part that helps push the ball out or the chamber. And getting a new one will help very very lil. So lil that it doesn't really matter. THis is because the stock front bolt on the tippmann markers is made so well that changing it doesn't make it any better because they will perform just about the same. Replacing the stock power tube to a full aluminum power tube is a good idea because after a while the stock plastic power tube does tend to break and when that happens it will cause air or co2 to leak. The aluminum one wont do that and lasts a lot longer.

Q:I am doing a school project and i need to get my hands on some surgical tubing. i don't know ware to buy it however can somebody please help me???????

Find a lowes or Home depot near you and go to the plumbing section where they sell hoses by the foot. Most carry the latex tubing your looking for. I just passed right by a roll of the stuff earlier when i was there.

Q:I'm doing a science fair project and I am in great need of test tubes.-Thanks! =]

No, you can get them from teacher/medical catalogues, or if you have a store like Fry's Electronics that sells Pyrex glasswear, etc.. then you can find it.

Q:What are the different sizes of plastic tubes available?

The different sizes of plastic tubes available can vary widely depending on the specific application and industry. Common sizes range from small diameters such as 1/8 inch (3.18 mm) to larger diameters of 6 inches (152.4 mm) or more. However, the availability of sizes can be customized and tailored to meet specific requirements, allowing for a wide range of options to suit various needs.

Q:I'm building a computer and I got to the liquid cooling option and I can't decide between copper tubing and plastic tubing. I've seen plastic tubing and know that plastic is easier to detach, but I think copper might cool the components better. Any suggestions?(Note-this is not a budget build by any means-I want to know which one performs better, not what's the best bang for your buck)

Copper is better bang but needs to be bent for each component. Plastic is flexible and just needs to be cut to length

Q:My plan is to use a torch to heat a bronze 3/4 female thread and twist it into the plastic male piece, making a 3/4 male thread. The picture shows a 1/2 female bronze piece, but I plan to use a 3/4.Please help!

They actually make threaders designed to go on plastic piping.

Q:i got water leakin on the driver floorboard and i figured it was the drain tube but i cant find it to save my life. anybody have an idea? any help is appreciated. thanks

OMG we spent a good 40 minutes trying to find the one on a Galant. Look under the dash on the driver's side towards the center up by the front firewall. Up and above to the right of the gas pedal. The left side of the big black plastic airbox is hopefully right there, if it's not covered up in trim panels, and there is the black plastic elbow tube coming from the box then bending forward through the firewall. Use that point of reference to go on the engine side and try to find it poking through the firewall. It only sticks out maybe 1/4 of an inch. Might be some metal hydraulics in the way. Probably a full arm length down, and that's with you draped over the car. It's a nightmare to get at, but it's doable once you find it and then find a way to snake your arm in from underneath. I used a long plastic tube taped to the blow tip of an air compressor and fed it in to the drain tube. Some people say stick a wire in , but I found the 90 degree bend in the tube on the inside made that worthless.

Q:What pipes and connections are commonly used in sewage pipes?

A double wall corrugated pipe for a municipal road; a reinforced concrete pipe or steel pipe for a main pipe.Commonly used are stainless steel, PVC and polypropylene pp-r. Generally for hot melt welding, and another kind of pipe connection is hot melt socket, but it is only used for drainage pipe, because there is pressure to the water pipe, so it can not be used, easy expansion.The most commonly used material for sewage pipes plastic pipes and pipe fittings, rigid PVC pipes (UPVC) and UPVC pipes are the most widely used plastic pipes both at home and abroad. UPVC tube has high impact resistance and chemical resistance.
