Glass Tubes

[tatum80]

Im new to this forum and was wondering if anyone knew whether the Pyrex glass tubes will work with other tanks? I have a SS dct map and would like to replace my broken poly tank with a glass tank. Any experiences out there?

Yes, big daddy sells pyrex sleeves for their tanks. Not sure if will fit your tank sleeves though?

Thanks Serpent67. I'll check out what they have. I was thinking that some vinyl tubing from home depot may work too, but I'm not sure how my acidic eliquid will react to the material.

Many replace theirs with the vinyl tubing. Very good replacement with no negative reports from juice damage reported so far.

You can get it by the foolt for like a buck.

Go for it

Sounds like a No-Brainer to me.

I have read several posts that pyrex tanks work best with delrin caps because the SS can chip the pyrex.

Think I'm gonna try the vinyl tubing first only because I like the SS caps quite a bit. I really wish the polycarbonate wasn't so reactive with my key lime pie liquid. Thanks for all the educated feedback. Have any of you tried the hand-blown glass tanks?
