Who sells hydraulic clutch tubing?

I've been looking tubing like the plastic tubing that goes from the OEM style clutch master cylinder to the slave cylinder, and so far no luck. Car parts stores don't carry this, and when I do an online search no luck either. Anyone know where I can buy this? I'm assuming it's some kind of special plastic tubing that can handle a lot of pressure as well as resist brake fluid.

Thanks for any help with this.

If you just want Hydraulic tubing contact a Hydraulic place like Pirtek. Not sure if you have locations near you, but at the end of the day they are a hydraulic supply shop so you can use them for anything like that. (Brakes, power steering..etc).

I had them make a custom power steering hose for me on my LT1 swap.

I ordered this one. Worked great but I did have to sand down the tip of one side to work in my aftermarket metal slave cylinder.

Mine is red in color and very stiff. It looks to be very thin walled. It's different than the hydraulic hose you would find on the power steering pump, etc. Seems to be some sort of plastic.

The link I got above went to a braided line with fittings on either end. Mine is just a piece of plastic tubing that pushes onto plastic nipples on the master and slave cylinders.
