Title: tube to go between false bottom and ball valve
Post by: jackflash on November 03, 2015, 11:57:27 AM
Does anyone know where to get a tube to go between my false bottom and ball valve (ooooohhh...matron).
I guess it needs to be heavy duty, as in it's gonna get hot down there. It's connecting to 3/8 barbs. Like this:

Straight silicon should do it, as it's rated upto about 170C I think.
