My Bradley capo tubing is looking a bit groaty: does anyone have either a spec or maybe an Amazon link for the perfect rubber/silicone tubing to get to replace it with? I have a Charlies Capo, but I like the Bradley better, since the central shaft on the Charlies is rather plump, so that requires some careful positioning to make sure it is not touching the two flanking strings. Bradley is just autopilot.
Red Rubber Urethral Catheter 18Fr size. Fits the Bradley perfectly. Long lasting and very inexpensive. Here's a link
to Vitality Medical supply. 1 of the 16 inch units is nearly a lifetime supply. Costs about $1.50 I learned about from a friend who worked in a hospital supply department.

Hi Jim,
I have both capos as well and also use my Bradley most of the time. I haven't myself, but the tubing for the Charlie’s should fit the Bradley. Charlie supplies and recommends Tygone fuel line (I believe it’s 1/8”ID x 1/4” OD). You can it at your local auto parts or hardware store. It’s tougher than most surgical tubing, so a short roll will last a lifetime. I would pull a piece off your Charlie’s and put it on the Bradley to test the fit.
If it’s not the same size, you should be able to go up or down a size to fit.
