I am redoing most of the loom tube(split conduit) in my engine bay as it is either very brittle or completely gone and I can find all the sizes I need except one, I am looking for a loom tube with an ID of less than 7mm.

Would anyone know where I could get some?

Thanks.

The smallest i've ever heard of is 6mm, but that could just be the same stuff and the distributor has measured it differently.
The only other thing I can think of is a 5mm cable wrap.
I've only ever seen that on motorbikes, and in chrome.

Not sure where to buy any of it, other than FleaBay.

Edit: Actually, just had a poke around and found 4.5mm: http://www.ebay.com....=item27b9777b16

Surely THAT is the smallest it goes.

Yeah I found that but it's in the UK, I might have to try Farnell or someone that sells gauges and that sorta gear.

I used 7mm but I really need something smaller as my coil cover for my engine is now pressing down on the split conduit because of the limited room under there.
European plastic is poo!
