Product Description & Info
Superior Performance in a Broad Range of
Applications
Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing is uniquely engineered to provide flexibility,
chemical
resistance and extended pump life in a clear, plasticizer/oil free tubing
product.
It is ideal for a broad range of demanding applications including peristaltic
pump
systems, soap and detergent dispensing, ink transfer,water purification lines,
food and beverage and chemical transfer.
Outperforms PVC in Chemical Resistance
Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing is resistant to a wide range of fluids that
typically
destroy PVC products. Its chemical resistance allows it to be used in
applications with
aggressive chemicals such as polar solvents, benefiting the user with less
downtime
and tubing changes. Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing yields a longer service life
and does
not degrade over time, unlike other flexible tubing products (see “Relative
Chemical
Resistance Chart” on back of sheet).
Additional Product Features
Upon incineration, many tubing products release hazardous by-products such as
hydrogen chloride gas, but when properly incinerated, Tygon® Plasticizer Free
Tubing
does not. Since it contains no plasticizers or oils, Tygon® Plasticizer Free
Tubing will
not yield any taste, which makes it an ideal choice for food and beverage
applications with
strict taste requirements and will help ensure accurate results from analytical
instrument
tests.Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing fully complies with FDA 21 CFR, 177.2600
criteria.

Comparative Peristaltic
Pump Tubing Life
The table below depicts hours
until failure of 1/4" ID x 3/8" OD tubing. In each case, a 3-roller pump head
operating at 600 rpm under room temperature (73°F). Tubing failure is measured
in hours of use prior to rupture.
Note: Please be sure
this tubing is appropriate for your application, once the tubing is cut we do
not accept returns on this product. If you're not sure,
email or call us.
Tygon is packaged in 50 foot boxes and sold in lengths of 1 foot per quantity
1. Choose the number of feet you'd like in the Quantity Field below. We will
