What is this black ribbed tubing as seen on mattel ghost traps? And to find it?

[who45]

i need to buy this stuff in metres, so i can cut off what i need as i need it - trouble is i cant find it - the closest i can find is this stuff, but its split due to it being a cable tidy - i need it unsplit - anyone throw a lifeline as to what its called or where it available from in the uk.

i need an outer diameter of 10-12mm, the inside doesnt mattter - it has to be ribbed and flexible plastic

the closest i can find is not good for what i intend to do:

Try asking Leigh in this thread: http://www.therpf.com/f9/bob-alien-giger-inspired-alien-121902/

He seems to have used similar stuff in his Alien build and he's from the UK.

It looks like split loom tubing. It's used to keep wiring neat, Radio Shack or car audio shops will have it.

*edit* I see you said unsplit, don't know where to get that.

In the U.K I'd be looking at screwfix. Possibally a electrical cable trunking.

This is close just after a quick look.

Hey there
I work in a garden centre and i have some of that exact stuff unsplit (in those dimensions). it came from an old water feature/pond pump. so you may want to try a pond/aquatic specialist.
