Du-Bro 554 Tygon Tubing – 5/32" ID x 3 ft for Glow Fuel

This Du-Bro 554 Tygon tubing is a 3-foot length of flexible plastic fuel line designed specifically for glow fuel in remote-controlled vehicles. With an outside diameter of 0.16 inches and a wall thickness of 1.59 mm, it fits securely onto fuel fittings without cracking or hardening over time.

Designed specifically for glow fuel systems

Unlike tubing meant for gasoline or other fuels, this Tygon line is formulated exclusively for glow fuel. It maintains its flexibility and resists the brittle deterioration that can occur with standard plastics when exposed to methanol-based glow fuels. The secure fit prevents leaks and fuel starvation, ensuring consistent engine performance.

Why the right fuel line matters

Using a fuel line that matches your fuel type is critical for reliability and safety. Glow fuel can chemically degrade generic plastic tubing, leading to cracks, leaks, or hardening that stops fuel flow. Du-Bro's Tygon formulation is engineered to resist these effects, providing a durable connection that remains pliable even after prolonged use. The precise 0.16-inch outside diameter ensures it grips fuel fittings without need for clamps, simplifying installation and maintenance.
