Vinyl is horribly evil. Very stiff, it stains, kinks very easily...just a pain to work with. If you took a section of clearflex and a section or vinyl and just held them, you would feel a quality difference. :eek:
Trust me, the extra for clearflex is worth it. :)

I'm not sure. It's on Page 85, Chemical PVC tubing, 1/2" ID, 1/8" wall, 3/4" OD, $.65/ft. If that's the same...then yes.
Edit: Screw it, I'll look it up...yeah, that's right. :D

That's Tygon.
Only on the side that says Tygon. The side that says Chemical PVC is clearflex.
