Fluor-A-Pure™ Ultra High Purity PFA Tubing

Fluor-A-Pure™ PFA tubing is a ultra high purity PFA tubing solution designed for demanding chemical and high purity fluid transfer service. Manufactured from 100% virgin high performance grade PFA, this tubing is developed for aggressive chemical environments and critical process applications that require broad chemical inertness, low permeation, and strong resistance to stress cracking.

Fluor-A-Pure tubing combines excellent thermal stability, extremely low moisture absorption, and a smooth translucent surface that helps reduce areas where particles can collect. Its flexibility compared with other PFA tubing grades can help simplify routing in tight system layouts, while compatibility with flare or conventional fittings supports integration into a range of laboratory, pharmaceutical, and process systems.

This tubing is packaged in a controlled environment and is available in standard and custom sizes in both inch and metric formats. It is manufactured for pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical applications and is also well suited for fine chemical processes, heat exchangers, laboratory service, flow monitoring lines, and inert gas transfer. Documented sterilization compatibility includes autoclave, EtO, and chemical methods, with compliance statements including USP Class VI, FDA 21 CFR 177.1550, REACH, RoHS, and food contact suitability.
