That design is why the pumps handle aggressive chemicals well, and it is also why the tube is the consumable. Every revolution flexes the same section of tube. Eventually it fatigues and splits, and when it does the chemical ends up inside the pump head instead of in the pool.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrdering the right one\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRola-Chem lists this tube at 13-1\/4 in. and in the premium Norprene grade. Rola-Chem also sells a standard version at the same length and other tubing options for its feeders, so measure the tube you are pulling out and match the length and grade. Most operators keep a spare on hand and change the tube on a schedule rather than after a failure.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rola-Chem","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634421739732,"sku":"ROL-451-6081","price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_2cc4d2b7-33f1-49d6-8e8c-0b1798e96a8d.png?v=1788830274","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/flex-tube-w-clamp-prem-13-25","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
