Weighted Tubing – 5/8″ ID
Weighted tubing is self-weighted so it lays on the bottom of your pond instead of across the top of the water like polyethylene or vinyl airline.
- No more bricks or cinder blocks to try to hold your tubing down! This means easier installation, removal, and maintenance.
- Tubing lays across the bottom so you’re much less likely to get snagged when swimming, fishing, boating, etc.
- Compared to other tubing types, weighted tubing is more flexible and resistant to the shear forces of ice, resistant to kinking and splitting.
Weighted tubing is very easily camouflaged in shallow ponds due to its dark colour.

FAQ
How does weighted tubing differ from regular polyethylene tubing?
Weighted tubing lays on the bottom of the pond instead of across the top, reducing the risk of snagging and eliminating the need for additional weights like bricks or cinder blocks.
Is the tubing resistant to ice and environmental stress?
Yes, weighted tubing is more flexible and resistant to shear forces from ice, as well as resistant to kinking and splitting.
Can this tubing be used in shallow ponds?
Yes, due to its dark colour, it blends well with shallow pond environments and is easily camouflaged.

Installed the weighted tubing in my small pond last week. It stayed firmly on the bottom without any extra weights. No snags during fishing or swimming. The dark colour matches the pond nicely and looks natural.

Much easier to install than the previous polyethylene tubing. It doesn’t float and stays put. Good flexibility and holds up well in cold weather without cracking.

I’ve used other types of pond tubing before, but this one is a game changer. It doesn’t move around and is less likely to catch on fishing gear. Very satisfied with the performance.
