5 5/8" Tubing | McMaster-Carr

Fabricate containers, tanks, and lenses for light fixtures with these scratch- and UV-resistant cast acrylic tubes. Cast acrylic, which is comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® acrylic, is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. This material stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate and maintains clarity over time.

Chemical-Resistant Cellular Glass Pipe Insulation

Absorbs no moisture, so it’s immune to organic solvents, most acids, and corrosive environments. It's often used in chemical-processing systems and underground lines.

Slit 90° Elbows

Ready to fit over right-angle pipe bends. Just pull open the insulation and snap it around your pipe.

Jackets—An added defense against moisture for pipes in damp outdoor and underground environments. These metal jackets keep moisture from sneaking past, preventing corrosion and temperature loss.

Insulation Tapes—Wrap around pipe insulation to seal shut.
