Clear PVC

[bnhreef]

Hey Guys,

Anyone know where to find clear PVC 6" ???

Thanks

[michika]

Sorry don't know where to get it in Edmonton, we've been looking too. I do know that 4" clear PVC is $32/ft. If your going to end up buying a 10ft stick of 6" I'd be willing to split the cost with you!

Wow, at $32/ft, you might as well go acrylic...its cheaper :eek:

What is 6" acrylic per foot?

[mr_alberta]

Last time I checked, 6" extruded 1/8" wall stuff was $23 - $25/ft. 5" extruded 1/8" wall is $19/ft.

Here's some PVC prices from Savko .... $US per foot.

Is that localy? There must be a minimun purchase of 6ft or something like, right?

[mr_alberta]

Yes, locally.

You do have a minimum purchase of 6' unless you miraculously find a cut off of larger sized acrylic tubing.

I just went through all this a while back and here are the prices I got.
4" schedule 40 - 10' length - 23.02/ft
6" schedule 80 - 6' length - 35.00/ft Thin wall. 1/8 inch but still fits all PVC fittings - speacial order about a month to get in.
Johnston Plastics - 465-0431

Cheers,

So what's the consensus? Is PVC cheaper than acrylic?

Thanks

PVC is cheaper if you are using the SCH 40 stuff (the white pipe) but if your going clear then acrylic is the way to go!!!
