Grow1 Black Vinyl Tubing - 1/2-in ID x 5/8-in OD - 25 ft

Opaque Flexible Line for Air and Water Runs - 25 ft Length

Clear tubing lets light into nutrient solution, and light encourages algae in your lines and reservoirs. This Grow1 vinyl tubing is opaque black, so it blocks light along the run and helps keep your plumbing cleaner. It carries air or water, which lets you use one tubing type across several parts of a hydroponic system.

This single 25 ft length with a 1/2-in inner diameter suits home gardeners plumbing one reservoir or a small system, and growers who want spare tubing on hand for repairs and layout changes. Larger operations can order several lengths to cover longer runs.

Key Features & Benefits

• Opaque black vinyl — blocks light through the tubing walls to discourage algae growth in the line.
• 1/2-in inner diameter — matches fittings and barbs sized for 1/2-in tubing.
• 5/8-in outer diameter — lets you check clamp and fitting fit before you plumb.
• 25 ft length — gives you enough tubing to cut to size for several connections.
• Air or water use — one tubing type serves aeration and solution lines.

Who Should Use Grow1 Black Vinyl Tubing

Use it if you build or maintain hydroponic systems and need flexible line for air or water. It suits home gardeners and commercial growers who want an opaque line for reservoirs, pumps and feed runs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Why choose black tubing over clear?
A: Black tubing is opaque, so it blocks light from reaching the liquid inside. That helps discourage algae growth. Clear tubing lets you see flow, but it admits light.

Q: What does inner diameter mean?
A: Inner diameter (ID) is the width of the hollow channel inside the tube. It determines which barbs and fittings the tubing fits. This tubing has a 1/2-in ID.

Q: Can I use it for both air and water?
A: Yes. The distributor lists this tubing for air or water use. Match your fittings to the 1/2-in inner diameter.

Q: How long is one unit?
A: One unit is a single 25 ft length of tubing. You can cut it to the lengths your layout needs.

Q: How do I cut and connect it?
A: Cut it square with a sharp blade or tubing cutter. Push it onto a barbed fitting sized for 1/2-in inner diameter, and add a clamp if the connection needs extra hold.
