PTFE Tubing

PTFE has the lowest coefficient of friction of all polymers and is useful in high temperature applications. PTFE has very good chemical resistance to all common solvents, acids and bases.

Download

FEP Tubing

FEP is more transparent and optically clear than PTFE, therefore used in monitoring equipment. FEP is also more flexible than PTFE. FEP is virtually unaffected by oxygen, ozone and UV light.

Download

PFA Tubing

PFA has similar properties with PTFE, though it gives longer continuous length. It also has higher continuous working temperature than FEP. PFA has the smoothest surface of all fluoropolymers.

Download

PVDF Tubing

PVDF has excellent resistance to creep and fatigue as well as great thermal stability. PVDF has exceptional radiation resistance against gamma rays. PVdF is unaffected by oxygen and UV light.

Download

ETFE Tubing

ETFE is mechanically strong, high abrasion and wear resistance. ETFE has excellent tensile strength. ETFE is virtually unaffected by oxygen, ozone and UV light and can be sterilised by Gamma.
