Lesson 1 TUBING FUNDAMENTALS Tubing may be used as an alternative to pipe & in some applications, is better than pipe. Since tubing is not threaded like pipe, tubing material is generally thinner. Lighter, & easier to handle. It can be bent around obstacles & therefore needs fewer connections. The flexibility of tubing also offers advantages over pipe in certain installations. Copper i…
