Is it my imagination or is there a huge gap of missing gap sizes there, going
from about .190" to .375" in one swell foop? With most of the smaller ones
entirely too small for that tubing size, nothing left of the tubing when it
finally fits.

I wondered about that as 5mm sounded familiar.

Not too easy to stick a text label on something that small. More often a
company logo which is 200% forgettable by the time my age rolls around.

Of course, and theres always that minimum order to fill.
