Fluor-A-Pure™ PTFE Tubing
Product Description
SaniSure Fluor-A-Pure™ PTFE Tubing is high-purity PTFE tubing designed for demanding fluid transfer and equipment connections in pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical, laboratory, and chemical process environments. Made from 100% virgin grade PTFE resin, this PTFE tubing combines broad chemical resistance, low permeability, and a wide continuous operating temperature range for applications where material compatibility and cleanliness are critical.
The PTFE construction provides a non-stick surface, a very low coefficient of friction, and excellent electrical properties while resisting nearly all industrial chemicals and solvents. Because the material is chemically inert and contains no plasticizers, Fluor-A-Pure PTFE tubing is well suited for sensitive process streams and general-purpose transfer where clean, dependable performance matters. The tubing is packaged in a controlled environment, produced with no printing on the tube, and is suitable for use with conventional fittings.
Fluor-A-Pure PTFE tubing is manufactured for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applications and is available in standard and custom sizes in both imperial and metric dimensions.
