question on replacement tubing.


The motive bleeder comes with Tygon 2375 tubing. are both types of tubing Tyson 2375 and superthane interchangeable?

US Plastic Corporation part number: 56412, 5/16" ID, 7/16" OD. Price per foot at present is $0.37.

I first used vinyl tubing sourced from the local Home Depot. That type of tubing is stiffer/harder and tended to leak at the spigot on the pump's reservoir (spigot is a tad small), even with a crimp clamp in place. The Superthane Ester tubing is softer and provided an air-tight seal.

I also used an Oetiker crimp clamp at all joints, not that it was absolutely necessary.

Are you worried about the brake fluid used in each type of tubing and possible compatibility? If so, Google compatibility of each.
In my case, I am not flowing fluid through mine.
