Plastic Tubing
Plastic tubing of various lengths and bores constructed of materials suitable for general laboratory, biopharmaceutical, food and beverage, medical, vacuum, low-pressure, high-pressure, cleanroom or environmental applications. Products may be chemical- or corrosion-resistant. Formulated for resistance to flex fatigue and abrasion, plastic tubing is more flexible and less permeable than rubber tubing.
How Is Plastic Tubing Used?
Flexible plastic tubing may be used as transfer lines for contamination fluid control, hydraulics, protective jacketing, vacuum pump and diaphragm pump feeds and discharges, refrigeration, water and fluid lines, food and beverage, instrumentation, research laboratories, agriculture, material handling, air and gas lines, chemical lines and pharmaceuticals.
Types of Plastic Tubing:
• PVC: lightweight and flexible, will retain its bore on bending and can be sterilized up to 121°C
• Silicone: ideal where a hard-wearing material is needed, including transfer of liquids or higher temperature environments
• LDPE: good for general low pressure and temperature, instrumentation, corrosive atmosphere, and food processing
• PTFE: has excellent chemical-resistant and temperature-resistant properties
• PE: flexible, lightweight, durable, and corrosion resistant, used for a wide range of liquid, gas, and fluid transfer applications
• FEP: clear, small-diameter tubing, the economical choice for chemical resistance and broad temperature exposure
• PEEK: high-performance polymer with mechanical and chemical resistance, and highly resistant to thermal degradation

Braintree Scientific MICRORENATHANE TUBING 100FT/RL
In our opinion, Micro-Renathane is the most blood compatible tubing ever made. For implantation studies in experimental animals this tubing offers extended catheter life and reduces the probability of intravascular thrombosis. **Sold for research purposes only and not for human use**
US Plastic Corporation 5/16" ID x 9/16" OD x 1/8" Wall Tygon S3 E-3603 Laboratory Tubing, 50ft
This tubing is ideal for general laboratory use, analytical instruments, peristaltic pumps, condensers, incubators, desiccators, as well as gas and drain lines. This tubing offers superior life and minimizes labor and the expense of replacement. It is non-oxidizing and non-contaminating, and less permeable than rubber tubing.
Cole-Parmer Food, Milk, and Dairy Tubing, 2" ID x 2-1/2" OD; 50 Ft
Food, Milk, and Dairy Tubing is non-toxic, taste-free and odor-free, and meets all applicable regulatory standards for use in food, dairy and milk applications. Producers of food, milk and dairy products require the dependable performance of this tubing in countless filling, draining, transfer and processing applications. Smooth, non-porous and flexible, the Food, Milk, and Dairy tubing promotes a sanitary fluid path by maintaining an interior free of trapped particles, and minimizing potential for bacterial growth. In addition, it is resistant to harsh alkaline cleaners and is not affected by most commonly used sanitizers.
