    PEX hose/ Tubing?

    Has anyone ever used PEX tubing for vac applications? Is there a certain type to use? I'm pulling about 23 Hg and I'd like a more flexible tubing than what I'm using now (white reinforced kitchen faucet spray hose). The PEX looks good with the quick connectors but wasn't sure if it would collapse?

    Thanks as always-

    Thanks for the input, I went to check some out today and yes, I think I'm better off using a coil hose for now.
