Review on 10M 32.8Ft Black PU Air Compressor Tubing Pipe 3/8" OD - Beduan Pneumatic Tube Hose For Fluid Transfer by Jermaine Krishnamoorthy

The images they use for this product implies that it is very flexible and will bend easily. That's why I bought this one over many of the others. It feels like plastic and if you bend it very much, it kinks - but mostly, it is just really hard to change it's shape because it is so stiff and "plasticy". I wanted to use this for an air assist hose for my laser, but the hose needs to move around with the laser head (it goes through a flexible routing tube that bends to accommodate whatever direction the laser head goes). This stuff has been coiled and it is just stuck in the coiled position. If you try to straighten it, it really fights you. It fights back so hard, I can already tell that it will burn up my stepper motors in my laser trying to fight this thing.
