    Default Stainless internal routing tubing

    Any and all: What size sources are out there for the small gage stainless steel tubing for internal cable routing (specifically cable only internal, with the housing stopped at the internal routing insert)? I've seen it in brass (at Nova), but not in stainless...

    TIA

    I use 3/16" 22ga stainless tubing from my local hardware store. It's an Ace store, so you should be able to get the same tubing at most Ace stores.

    Would that be for running the housing through the internal routing? I get an ID of .1315" from the below link...

    No, that's for bare cable not housing. .1315" is just a bit over 1/8". I use it for under BB cable guides and anywhere I put a bare cable.
    I use 5/16" tubing for housing.
