My inspector did some research to ascertain exactly which Tygon is suitable for
the fuel sight gauge and I then ordered it from LAS Aerospace Ltd, which took
a few months before it finally arrived at my home. It certainly wasn't cheap,
considering that I needed several meters (23 Ft)and the LAS part number 05-15262
went firstly from France to the USA, before returning across the Atlantic
to the UK.
The short description is TYGON LP-1200 tubing 1/4" X 3/8" fuel line. Along the
tubing length is printed SAINT-GOBAIN TYGON(R) LP-1200 1/4 ID X 3/8 OD
EPA-SGN-120
Q-19-067 lot 30184182 made at 15:34 on 08/28/2022 Patent Pending.
Considering that my original sight gauge tubing lasted 23years and was still
reasonably
supple, although stained brownish, I hope that this officially approved
stuff gives at least 10 years of good service.
