Does anyone in the SLC area know where 1/2 inch black pvc pipe can be procured?  Thanks

Check "Combined Plastics" off of 3300 south and between West Temple and 300 West.

What are you going to use it for?  One idea to make white pipe blend in is to paint it purple with pvc primer.

How about Lowes or the Home Depot? Check in the sprinkler section.

I would check at Sprinkler World in Sandy. If they do not have it, then I would try Standard plumbing.

I don't think you'll find black PVC.  Do you mean black ABS pipe?  If so, I've never seen it in dimensions smaller then 1.5".  But you can buy grey threaded PVC nipples at your local hardware store or use white PVC and paint it.

Thanks for the responses.  I am plumbing a circulation setup for my tank and I wanted black inside of the tank.  I know that abs is black but that is not what I wanted.  I have read threads on other sites and I understand that it is available but unusual.  Perhaps I will try some other type of black tubing.

What diameter does it have to be? There is "funny" pipe for sprinkler systems that is black. Or the is pex piping available in gray. Both of these are safe for potable water, and are available at any hardware store.

MSM has black Spirlite.  Spiralite is flexable PVC that can be glued.  You cannot used Red Hot Blue Glue with it though, you have to use a two-part primer and solvent.

Maybe marine spray-paint will work.  I dunno...
