The 4-metre length and industrial-grade materials make the set suitable for multiple jobs — from routine repair to full system retrofit — while the distinct colour coding speeds size selection on the worksite. The strips are reusable, easy to clean, and intended for interior pipeline applications where controlled, distortion-free bends are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the colour-coding simplify work on-site?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit uses four highly visible colours to identify each tube size, cutting selection time and reducing mismatches.
