alright, so with the flexopet loom, would 1/2" work for hyperflex? when i messure the hyperflex it's just a bit larger than 1/2 but it's not very close to 3/4"...so 1/2 should suffice right? i mean i know the stuff is flexible, but i didnt know how much give it had...

thats one reason i have not bought any of it yet. i was thinking about contacting them for a sample pack of sizes. because i dont know what will fit my installation.

i really need to look into it. in a few weeks i plan on tearing my whole car down and redoing all the wiring.

its going to pe a pain in the ***. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

however the pdf said this;

"Size Selection - Size Selection is easy because of the expandable nature of this material. For a tight a rigid fit a smaller size than your application should be selected. Hoses look great when applied tightly

For a more flexible application such as wires, a size close to or slightly larger should be used. This will insure that the application is able to smoothly and easily move"

so that should help you out.

yea, i talked to 2 guys there, and neither were helpful with math and measurements...i asked what i should do, and they both told me they didn't know...didn't think to ask for a sample pack...but im starting a tear out and re-wire so thats why i wanted this stuff...ugh...

get 3/4" and call it a day. I believe hyperflex is 5/8th's of an inch.

Partsexpress as mentioned will be fine. I ordered my loom from them.

 

[rtillaree 10+ year member]

screw it i bought some 3/4" only way to find out...i guess...

1/2" will fit 1/0 fine but 3/4" makes life easy....
