I have a brass muncher secreted in my workshop or a secret pack rat or a failing memory.

Regardless of the cause I seek sources positive personal experiences with obtaining replacement tubes for the Chrome Vertex Pen KIt PKFP4000.

I purchased 3/8 10 inch tubes WRONG guess 3/8 drill should have rung a bell.

If you know where, how, cost, availability please reply.

Many thanks Peter from a long way away in AUSTRALIA.

Peter, Psi lists the 3/8 tubes under the acccesories page of the Vertex. Is the ID the wrong Size?

I believe the Atlas and Polaris and Patriot also use 3/8 tubes

Also, Exotics carries the long clicker pen kit tubes which use a 3/8 drill bit.
Brass Tubes If nothing Else give Ed a holler and have him measure them for you

pwhay, are you sure they are not the right tubes. The tubes that are listed as 3/8 should be the ones you need for a 3/8" drilled blank. I think you should check what you have, you probably have the correct ones.
