I believe what you are seeing is basically PVC sewer/drain pipe
typically put to use today in most new construction areas. I got a
section of the same basic material, however it was a lght green color
with a 1/2" wall thickness. It worked quite well in my coil so far to
date. The section I used was 15 1/4" diameter by 60" long. The blue or
turquoise material that I've seen was always a much heavier wall
thickness, close to 1" and I'd leave that stuff just laying! Good luck
in your hunt. If you decide to build a coil using this material and on
the 10" plus range, let me know and I'd be happy to let you know what
was a success and what was a failure in my construction effort.
