Exhaust Ventilation

Diameter also could be or not available for your needs, but this is the only such tubing that exists, known on our markets.

The fact that it performed ok in a smaller roaster tells little about its capabilities... with less cfm to exhaust, means faster air cooling along the conduit, less thermal stress. With larger volumes of the bigger roaster that tube can be pushed to its limits.
