Looked at archives and see questions on this but  not the specific adaptor I'll need for the heated pitot tube copper connector to  the plastic tubing I plan to use (instead of the aluminum).

 anyone know what I need to make this connection  happen?

 Thanks!

Tygon F4040-A Fuel and Lubricant tubing comes to mind.  We use it on the turbine engines near a fuel transfer point with extreme heat near the exhaust stacks.  Heat resistance is important but so is compatibility with cleaning solvents and hydrocarbons. YMMV.

Pascal,

What brand of heated pitot is it? Unless it's something unusual I'd think the adapters from Safair1 would work fine. Once you're about 5 or 6 inches away from the pitot, heat shouldn't be an issue. Scroll down this web page:

 Here is a setup I copied for my salvaged cessna  heated probe. I just have the total not the total and static as is shown.   The nylon part I used was PN 266N04X04 from spruce.
