Exactly. Tubing should be silicone. No additional devices needed.


I can't agree more. Silicone tubing will practically last the rest of your lifetime, it never leaks and it reseals when removed and reconnected.

I used "food grade", thick walled, silicone tubing sourced from China due to the low price (around $50 for 12 meters) and free shipping. Red for pitot, blue for static, black for T/E.

PVC tubing is for fish tanks.
