Performance Pipe 1133779 Pneumatic Control Tubing Plenum

Product Description

The PERFORMANCE PIPE 1133779 is a 1/4-inch flame-retardant pneumatic control tubing rated for plenum installation. Constructed to resist stress cracking, this tubing is designed for use in low-pressure pneumatic control systems found in commercial HVAC and building automation applications. It carries a UL listing and meets plenum-rated requirements, making it suitable for installation inside air-handling spaces and return-air plenums where fire and smoke propagation standards apply. The black jacket with violet stripe provides visual identification in multi-tube pneumatic control runs. Supplied in coils of 250 ft each without a spool, it is handled and installed by licensed HVAC mechanical contractors and building automation technicians.

This tubing is used in pneumatic HVAC control systems, typically in commercial and institutional buildings where centralized air-pressure-based controls operate thermostats, damper actuators, and valve operators. The plenum rating makes it appropriate for above-ceiling installation in open-plenum return-air spaces without the need for conduit in many code jurisdictions. The violet stripe aids field identification when multiple pneumatic lines are routed together. This product is comparable to part number 1063773, making it a viable replacement option where that part has been specified. Each coil is 250 ft and sold as a set of 4 coils.

Key Features

• 1/4-inch outer diameter pneumatic control tubing for low-pressure HVAC control systems
• Plenum-rated construction meets requirements for installation in return-air plenums and air-handling spaces
• Flame-retardant material reduces fire and smoke propagation in plenum installations
• Stress-crack-resistant formulation extends service life in routed and bend-heavy runs
• UL listed for compliance with applicable installation codes
• Black with violet stripe for easy field identification among multiple control lines
• Supplied as 4 coils of 250 ft each, without spool, for jobsite flexibility

Compatibility

Comparable to part number 1063773. Designed as an OEM-compatible replacement for 1/4-inch plenum-rated pneumatic control tubing in commercial HVAC and building automation systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC or mechanical contractor familiar with pneumatic control systems and local building codes. Before servicing any pneumatic control circuit, relieve system air pressure at the compressor and verify pressure is fully discharged before disconnecting tubing. In plenum installations, verify local AHJ acceptance of plenum-rated tubing without conduit, as requirements vary by jurisdiction. Avoid kinking or over-bending during routing, as sharp bends can restrict airflow and compromise the tubing wall over time.
