The 9.5 mm bore is suited to very small submersible pumps, ornamental animal spitters with restricted jet openings, and decorative fountain features where flow rate is deliberately limited for aesthetic effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSmall-Bore Tubing for Decorative Feature Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome water feature applications specifically benefit from a narrower bore: a small jet through a frog or turtle spitter, a trickling stream over a millstone, or a gentle bubbler in a patio container. The 9.5 mm (3\/8 in) tubing produces these lower flow characteristics naturally without requiring additional flow restrictors. The black colour integrates visually with dark stone and substrate, and the 30.5 m (100 ft) roll provides sufficient length for extended routing runs or multiple short runs in a feature installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInner Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e9.5 mm (3\/8 in)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30.5 m (100 ft)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUV-resistant flexible vinyl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible With\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard 3\/8 in barb fittings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCut the tubing cleanly with a sharp utility knife. Push onto a 3\/8 in barbed fitting until the barb teeth are fully covered. For low-pressure decorative applications, a zip tie or small hose clamp provides a secure enough connection. For pressurised runs, use a stainless hose clamp. Avoid exposing the tubing to direct sunlight for extended periods; bury it under stone or route it in shadow to maximise service life. Inspect annually for brittleness or cracking at the fitting connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for decorative animal spitters, small tabletop fountain heads, millstone features, and any ornamental water feature using very small submersible pumps and requiring a low flow rate through the delivery point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aquascape","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52698572161343,"sku":"AQ-94008","price":104.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/8260\/9215\/files\/aquascape-tubing-default-title-aquascape-black-vinyl-tubing-3-8-x-100-43287371120959.webp?v=1776379941","url":"https:\/\/gardenpondusa.com\/products\/aquascape-black-vinyl-tubing-38-x-100","provider":"Ponds Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
