From what I've been told, you can't get anything over 4 inch in extruded. For 4 inch and smaller try GE Polymers, they'll be in the phone book but make sure you get their new address.

On the same train of thought, what about acrylic tubing larger then 4" in diameter?

Not so. Extruded comes in a variety of sizes above 4".
