What is the Macro Line on the bottom of your gun Made out of?

Ok i need to buy some in a different size for a cannon build. But for the life of me. All the stuff i order is WAAAAAAAY to stiff.

I have all the right fittings. glass Inject nylon safe up to 300 PSI. So... I ask you..??

Polyethylene?
Polyurethane?
acrylic?
blend?


Also, what size Tube is it that normally Fits in those Elbows on most guns?

Standard macro line goes up to 900 PSI. As long as you're using CO2 or regulated HPA, you shouldn't have a problem with it. 900 is a great reference figure, but my thoughts go to a summer day and a player with macro line on a CO2 gun left out in the sun... The "POW! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." of a ruptured line. Most have 3K BURST pressure. IOW, use common sense...

I found this typical reference, although it is not absolute. Most "super" heavy-duty macro line fits these specs. You too, young Luke, can use the power of the Google!

Nylon-12
.150" ID
.250" OD
.050" wall
1000 psi working pressure (3000 psi burst)
0.5" bend radius

No problem. When I get to the shop, I'll try and find a section of the Dye macroline. It has the specs stamped on it. I'll post them here for you...
