Not quite the same, but you get narrow, clear plastic pipes from petstores. They are used for airpipes, oxygen stones etc in fish tanks. They might do the trick for you

Is it fairy ridgid pipe or flexable? i did locate some silicone type tube on ebay a while back that i asumed would work but was far to flexable and i need it to be able to carry a small ammount of weight without colapsing back on itself.

You get 2 types, the blue one is usually very flexible, the clear one less so. I have seen fairly rigid clear ones there too, but as we havent got fish anymore I'm not 100% sure what is in use now or how flexible they are. It would be worth having a look though I think

I searched for "plastic tubing" using Bing and came up with hundreds of hits. Here's one for example

Call a few and ask for samples?
