Where do you find the clear tubes for the Hume case feeder? The few that I have are cracking and getting shorter. I've been looking on Amazon and the Internet but not finding exactly what we need. Any ideas? Thanks.

If you are loading 41 Magnum or smaller cartridges, you can use polycarbonate tube with an OD of 5/8" and an ID of 1/2". I purchase it from McMaster Carr in 8ft lengths.
McMaster part# 8585K106. You can probably get it from any plastic supplier. If you want to load 44 Magnum, 45 Colt of 45 AR it's more complicated. You can buy acrylic tube with an ID of 14MM and an OD of 18mm, but I have only been able to find it in 1ft or shorter lengths. It's on Amazon.
I have not been able to find anything equivalent to the original Hulme tube. Maybe someone else has had better luck.

I bought 50cm long acrylic tubes with 14mm ID and 18mm OD on AliExpress. They work beautifully.

Thanks for the reply guys. I thought I was the only one having problems finding these. I'm loading mostly 9mm right now so the smaller tubes sound like they will work. Thanks again.
