Lee's Standard Airline Tubing

Lee's Standard Airline Tubing is flexible, kink-resistant tubing that carries air from your pump to airstones, sponge filters, bubble walls, and other air-driven gear. It fits the standard 3/16 inch airline connection used by virtually all aquarium air equipment, and stays soft and pliable so it is easy to route around and behind the tank. Safe for both freshwater and saltwater. Pair it with one of our air pumps and accessories to complete your setup.

Features

• Universal fit. Standard airline diameter works with nearly all air pumps, airstones, check valves, and gang valves.
• Flexible and clear. Soft, bendable tubing routes neatly and resists kinking.
• Fresh or salt water. Non-toxic and safe for any aquarium.
• Three lengths. Grab just enough for one tank or a long run for a whole rack.

Setup Tips

Push the tubing firmly onto the pump outlet, airstone, or valve barb for a snug seal. Always fit a check valve between the pump and the tank so water cannot siphon back into the pump if the power cuts out. To soften a stiff end for an easier push-fit, dip it in warm water for a few seconds.
