Hose, Pipe or Tube

Post by Titus A Duxass »

Hi volks,

We use some 6mm OD (4 mm ID) PTFE hose/pipe/Tube/Tubing on a piece of kit here.

What is the correct engineering / parts catalogue term - Hose, Pipe, Tube or Tubing?

Cheers

Some sites do the safe thing and put tube to catch punters on google

Officially I am not allowed to use the progressive form (...ing) for verbs but I cannot find a rule for nouns.

Officially I should not ever put a comma before the word "and". I often do though :twisted:
