I'm looking for some plastic/nylon etc tube/sleeving/pipe with an o/d of 12mm. Ideally with an i/d of 8mm or 10mm (pushing it I know).

I only need a couple of 200mm lengths, it's for a home brew bike stand for a RF Cinch crank as I'm struggling to find anything.

I can do all the metal snotting, I just need something friendly to slide into the crank.

Cheers.

Thanks, but I should have said I'm looking for rigid stuff.

I could sort you some stainless tubes, the bore is definitely 10mm, pretty sure the wall is 1mm.
How many do you need ?

A 12mm plastic pipe will be pretty bendy.

Thanks for the kind offer kakisawa, much appreciated, but ideally I'm looking for something nylon/plastic so it's not metal on metal. It's to act as a sleeve on a crank type stand.

Shrink sleeves? If all you want is some protection on a metal arm.

I've got some 12mm Uponor pipe which is a composite pipe of plastic and aluminium. Not sure of internal dims though.
Google Unipipe to have a look and get back to me if you want some I could cut you a few bits.
