Thread: Water-cooled spindle tubing

Is there a recommended tubing to use?
I need to extend the tubing already supplied with the spindle and I currently have 2 types of 10mm tubing that I could use..
I have some braided PVC hose.. like this stuff.. http://www.amazon.co.uk/clear-braide.../dp/B00I9B0I1S (ID10mm OD about 14mm)
It says food grade so presumably meets the standard needed for my needs? It doesn't say anything about plasticizing.. not sure if that could be a problem...
Or I have some more water cooling PC type tubing.. 10mm/16mm https://www.overclockers.co.uk/mayhe...wc-114-mh.html
This doesn't say anything about food safe.. but it does state that it uses polymer additives that doesn't leach plasticizers..
Would either of these tubes be ok to use?
Is there a preference? (I'd prefer to use the first type as it's in my hands currently whereas I'd have to wait a few days for the second...)
Any assistance greatly appreciated!
