Black Vinyl Tubing For Water Gardens, Fountains & Spitters 

• Connect your pump to your fountain with this low cost black vinyl tubing.
• Can be used in aquariums and small water gardens.
• ½" is used with most spitter applications
• TJB-INC offers all the plumbing supplies you will need to assemble your custom water feature including: flexible pvc piping, manifold kits, pvc pipe fittings, and water fill valve parts.

Note:  A good way to think about tubing size is to imagine drinking from a straw. If you were to try to drink a glass of water with a cocktail straw it would take much longer than if you were to drink that same glass of water from a standard size straw. Over the years we have developed a chart to help our customer's size their tubing. Please see below. 

     Up to 500 GPH:   Use 1/2" Tubing
     Up to 900 GPH:   Use 3/4" Tubing

Up to 42,000 GPH:   Use 6" Tubing

Plumbing Tip: Try to avoid 90 degree turns for this will cause friction slowing down and reducing your water flow. We always recommend Flexible piping  instead of rigid piping to avoid connections that can not only leak but cause friction loss reducing your water flow.
