          Yes, the original line is a smaller diameter (1/8 or 3/16) but the 1/4 will work. You just need to buy the correct fittings for whatever diameter line you get.

            If I remember correctly... Isn't the hardline for a CCI Phantom the same diameter as the RT line? I think it may be the same length as well. I will have to check and report back

              According to the caliper it's a 3/16.

                Parker/Swaglok makes the tubing and fittings.

                I sell some here every now and again.

                    That will not be the same for a rt pro.

                      I'll concede that but I was also going off the safe-from-bursting aspect in the specs:

                      Brand Name Small Parts
                      Part Number SSTS-321001-36
                      Item Package Quantity 1
                      Material Type Stainless Steel 321
                      System of Measurement English
                      Item Shape Round
                      Temper Annealed
                      Outside Diameter 1/4 inches
                      Outside Diameter Tolerance +/-0.004 inches
                      Inside Diameter 0.152 inches
                      Wall Thickness 0.049 inches
                      Overall Length 36 inches
                      Maximum Pressure 6125 Pounds Per Square Inch
                      Metal Construction Seamless
                      Specification Met MIL-T-8808B

                      .....and according to those figures, any HP tank configured for "RT effect" needs will need a more robust line for the higher tank reg pressures used.

                      Aside from the RT effect - The 1/4" also allows for greater air flow to the valve. In a typical "ASA, to VA, to Valve" configuration...the bottle reg could suffer from a recharge rate issue...but since the line's pressurized to the valve, it could redeem some older regs' flow issues...was just a thought...

                          Anyone know what you could use to bend the piping without ruining it's integrity?

                            I've used this with great success.
                            This is the pack of 5, Metal Tube Bender from K&S Engineering.


                            There's also traditional tube benders like ones you use to bend brake lines that are under $20.
