im looking to find the distance between straight ends of the inner radius of this silicon hose without having it in hand. It's cheap amazon garbage, so no diagram with dimensions is given. I knew I should've paid attention in algebra.

Its obvious you didn't pay attention in algebra. You didn't remind the kids to "show your work".

In reply to _ :

I might be wrong but I am pretty sure there is no way without more information. the diameter of the tubing could stay at 2.5 inches but the circle that the 180 degrees is a part of could have any circumference

Eyeballing, I would guess 3 3/4" or so. It looks like about 1.5 diameters could fit inside the U.

Use a ruler to measure the stuff on your screen, then scale it up

To me it looks like 5". Seems like two diameters fit in the gap.

Gonna be honest here, in algebra we had these books that had the answers in the back. I just copied my book onto my homework and doodled down a pretend answer. The teacher never graded homework, only checked for attempts.

So you want the center of the left hole to the center of the right hole?  (picture the tube on its side)

If both tubes are the same diameter, measure from the outside of the left tube to the inside of the right hole, that will give you center to center distance of the two holes.  I would request more information from the seller, clicking the "more product information" does E36 M3.

Before calling, measure the same dimension on your application, perhaps the seller has a less expensive option that's a slip on.

ahaha I did the same thing. our books only had odd numbered answers, so i wrote those into my homework and made stuff up for the even numbered problems. laugh

Pegasus has more info on their site, their 2.5" 180 coupler hose has 2" radius. Pegasus

And how is that working out for you today?  smiley

Once again, I made it through the day without using algebra!

Oh, I thought OP wanted inside edge to inside edge, not center to center.

In that case it should be about 6 1/2", tiny bit more (I drove by MIT once).

@the op. They use the same photo for the 3" tube so without asking the seller there is no way to know what the photo really is of and as such you have no way to even guess at what you want to know

Thanks folks. Maybe I'll use Pegasus.

The folks at Pegasus are great. I called them once to see if they could measure something for me and they said they would and got back to me within an hour. I've purchased several things from them since.
