Active Aqua 3/4" ID Black Tubing 25'

Active Aqua 3/4" ID Black Tubing 25' is 3/4-inch inner diameter black vinyl tubing, in a 25-foot roll, for high-volume supply and return lines in hydroponic systems. The black color blocks light, which is the main cause of algae growth inside pipes.

Benefits

• 3/4 in inner diameter for moving high volumes with little flow loss.
• Opaque black vinyl that slows down algae formation inside the line.
• FDA-approved and BPA-free material.
• Flexible: adapts to curves in tents and racks without collapsing.
• Compatible with 3/4 in inner diameter barbs, straight connectors, and T-connectors.

How to Use

Cut the length you need with a sharp blade, leaving the end square. If the vinyl is stiff, immerse the tip in warm water for a few seconds to soften it and easily fit it onto the fitting. Secure with clamps on high-flow lines and rinse the inside with clean water between growing cycles.
