What size of PVC do most of you use on your sliders?
Thanks!

We have used 1and1/2 inch up to 16 inch. For a simple single rail i would use 4 inch, on twin rails we use the smaller pipe. The smaller the pipe the harder it is to stay balanced on

A 16 inch would be huge.But it would be sweet.

have you ever thought that a circle has the same surface area no matter what size. I used 1 1/2 inch because it is cheaper and i used two that are 6 inches apart.

4 inch has always worked good for me

george- go try to 50-50(not boardslide) a single pipe 1 and 1/2 inch slider and then try to 50-50 a 16 inch single pipe pvc slider. bigger the easier.

I never said anything about using a single pipe, i know that would be hard. but when you are using two pipes you will have the same contact area with any size pipe

we usually use 2 1/2 inch, it's easier to bend
