Industrial Conduit

[headsortails]

Does anyone know the correct term for the flexible hose that road workers use to route cables. Often brightly coloured, sometimes perforated but flexible. I want to buy some for use with ferrets but can't even find commercial suppliers online at the moment.

Any help rewarded with K.

Thanks WP but the stuff I'm looking for is about 16cm in diameter. The stupid thing is I found a site that sold it the other day, thought I bookmarked it but apparently didn't - now I can't find it.

Cheers H4ss4n, but those are 16mm not 16cm.

Please don't tell us you're planning to do a Richard Gere?

Fck me 16cm diameter is a bit big even after a Bert or CJ entry.

Back in the real world I want it to connect the internal part of the ferrets accommodation to the external part. Sorry if this does not meet your perverted comedic expectations.

I dunno why you just don`t ask when you see some lads laying the stuff, I`m sure they`d let you have some for a drink.

Or get the missus to ask, she could always say the the Rampant Rabbit isn`t ribbed enough & just isn`t doing it for her..

15.2 cm any good?

Dam bro, sound's like they live the dream. Got a pic of there accommodation? I'd make them a 2 story home with a firemans pole.

What about the thick solid drainage type pipe?

I'm looking for it to be made out of 'hard' plastic rather than PVC.

When it's finished I'll up a few photos.

That's almost the stuff. I have some of that. That is twinwall stuff, I'm after single. Should be able to find it from there.

Thanks again.

Another couple of links that might be possibles, the first one maybe a strong candidate looking at the dia & bend radius it isn`t to flexible.
