Reviews
It’s good quality tubing for low-pressure applications like instrument lines, or oil lines, etc. Just remember that aircraft AN fittings require a 37.5 degree flare, not the 45 degree flare that an automotive flaring tool makes (and yes, they will leak with the wrong flare).
Perfect for use in a vintage plane

I have used this tubing from Aircrft Spruce before building A&P school training aids. I knew where to get what I needed for building experimental HF base antennas.

This tubing is excellent for making fuel lines when paired with the proper and necessary nut/sleeve combination AN818 and AN819. Ensure you also have the proper flaring tool for 37 degree flares to mate with your AN connectors.

The 1/8 inch is approximately .009 lbs per ft and the 1/4 inch is approximately .026 lbs per foot.
Per the tech: short answer is yes. It is very similar in terms bend-ability to copper tubing.
Yes, 3003-O can be flared for use with AN fittings.
No, but 5052-0 alum tube is soft and is sold as straight tube. Not as soft as 3003, but can be bent and flared.
Ok great, we are glad you found the info you were looking for.
03-40700 is 1/2" x .035" tube. I.D. is approx. .43".
If a maintenance/repair manual of a certified aircraft requires 3003-0 aluminum tube, then this can be used. It, like most raw materials, do not have an FAA approval, but meet material specifications, and this cert can be purchased. If required, the material cert must be ordered with the material, at the time of order.
This is commonly used in experimental brake applications.
The Imperial 470-FH should work great, our part number is 12-01042.
This material is priced and sold by the foot. If you would like 50 feet, enter quantity as 50. If you would like 50 yards, enter quantity as 150.
