  • Clunk line

    Hello all, I need to replace the clunk lines on my Raptor Titan and was wondering what you guys were using and where you were sourcing it from?


    Many thanks

            I buy tank fuel tube and use it in all my main/header tanks - it's thinner and more flexible than normal fuel tube. I bought 3m of the stuff a while ago from my usual model supplier and it's actually lasting very well.

            Normal fuel tube is too stiff and holds the clunk off the bottom of a Quick UK header tank, and does the same some small, sideways mounted main tanks like those in the Scuttle or my Voyager 30 - where the main tank has a very short tube line.

            In a Rappy, I'm sure the normal stuff is just fine as has been quoted by others here.

              Normal tubing soon softens in the nitro and rolls around the tank no problem

                Yea thats what I found just takes a while to happen. I use the 3mm stuff and it does work a treat and lasts a bit longer as well.

                    proper clunk line just doesnt seem to last. as others have said, normal fuel line loosens up after a few flights.
