Description
UDP Braided Vinyl Tubing – 1-1/2″ ID x 2″ OD (25 Ft. Roll)
Professional-Grade Reinforced Tubing for High-Pressure Applications
Upgrade your aquatic or industrial plumbing with the UDP Braided Vinyl Tubing. Engineered for durability and high-performance flow, this reinforced hose is designed to handle significantly higher pressures than standard single-wall vinyl tubing. Whether you are plumbing a high-flow return pump for a reef tank, setting up a pond filtration system, or managing industrial fluid transfer, this 50-foot roll provides the reliability and strength needed for demanding environments.
Key Features
Polyester Braided Reinforcement: Features a high-strength spiral polyester yarn embedded between the inner and outer PVC layers. This reinforcement allows the tubing to withstand up to 4 times the working pressure of standard vinyl hose.
Kink-Resistant & Flexible: The braided design provides superior wall stability, preventing the tubing from collapsing or kinking in tight turns—a common frustration with non-reinforced hoses.
Crystal Clear Visibility: The transparent PVC material allows for easy visual monitoring of flow and quick identification of any blockages or sediment buildup.
Non-Toxic & FDA Grade: Manufactured with non-toxic, FDA-compliant compounds, making it safe for use in sensitive aquatic environments, including saltwater reef tanks and freshwater aquariums.
Superior Chemical Resistance: Resistant to a wide range of chemicals, mild acids, and alkalis. It is an ideal choice for hydraulic, pneumatic, and vacuum lines.

Installation Pro-Tip
To make installation easier and ensure a leak-proof seal, soak the ends of the tubing in warm water for a few minutes before sliding them onto barbed fittings. Secure all connections with stainless steel or plastic ratchet clamps for maximum safety.
