Last updated: SDM, June 2016

  1. Order the correct tube size.

    1. For a scroll exhaust, it must be compatible with KF25 barbed ends. SDM last ordered 1" ID 1 19/64" OD braided PVC high pressure tube from McMaster

    2. McMaster-Carr

  2. Cut the tube to the desire length, e.g. 5 feet. Make sure the ends are cut so they are flat

  3. Insert the barbed KF fitting

  4. Use a hose clamp to tightly secure the barbed fitting to the tube
