Synflex lines for vacuum?
 
1 Attachment(s)
So I was at princess auto yesterday (the chinese superstore) to get some parts for my meth injection setup and I was wondering if I could use a similar setup for vacuum lines

Here's what I got

Attachment 13089


the 2 port vacuum manifold with quick connects for synflex is for the water injection , but i was wondering if the same components could be used for vacuum.

I paid $18 for the manifolds , 4 fittings and an assload of synflex.

i don't see why they wouldn't. i used to work at a place that used those for pressure/vac solenoids and they had no issues, but repetitive lock/unlock use will leave an indent ring that might cause slight leaks

I have push some of those lines upwards of 60psi. Granted it was for something non car related, but it held just fine.

i thought about using pex with those quick conenctors for my basement plumbing, but im not sure on them. they seem to easy to be a quality alternative for solder and copper.
i also looked into one of those crimp tools, $100? ---- that

WTF are you doing using copper? Last time I checked PVC was still cheaper.
