Heck, ya got me ;-) Could be rubber, extremely soft polyurethane, or any
number of compounds. You'd probably have to ask someone at TLG to identify it.
I just bought a few packs of tubing from S@H to make sure I had enough. I get
it you are trying to do very long runs, or a very large project? If long runs,
you'd probably want stiffer tubing anyways to quicken response.
