Product information
Product data
Construction / Material
| Type of construction | extruded hose without metal spiral |
| Execution of the wall | made from a copolymer of TFE (tetrafluoroethylene) with a side chain modification of PPVE (perfluoropropylvinyl ether) |
| Material of the wall | fully fluorinated plastic PFA (perfluoroalkoxy) |
| Material properties | heat- and steam-resistant material, non-toxic material‚ physiologically harmless, material with excellent non-stick properties, NSF Compliance depending on grade, FDA and USP Class VI compliant types available, Food compliant (FDA/EU...) depending on type, ATEX conform conductive properties on request |
| Specifications of the wall | non-flammable (UL 94: V0) |
| Product Advantages | reduced stress crack with longer service life, good weldability, tubes are autoclavable or steam sterilisable, optimal residue emptying (no residue left behind) |
Properties
| Chemical Properties | good resistance to solvents, good UV resistance, weather-resistant, free from paint wetting impairment substances (LABS), non wetting, low extractability, iow permeation, chemical inertness, good resistance to aggressive chemicals |
| Mechanical Properties | high mechanical strength and surface hardness, material is resistant to stress corrosion cracking, friction-reducing‚ self-lubricating material, very low sliding and static friction expressed by a low coefficient of friction |
| Physical Properties | iow permeation, low surface energy, good dielectric properties |
| Colour | transparent to translucent (depending on wall thickness), other colours available according to the RAL colour chart |
| Other | resistance to harsh environment |
Operating Temperature
| Temperature Range | -200 to 260 °C |
Delivery Information
| Delivery, type of production | coils 50/100 m‚ cut lengths‚ ppools‚ lengths on request, inch dimensions are available as standard, other dimensions can be produced at short notice on request |

Data sheet PFA Tubing, metric
The minimum bending radius specifications for our tubings are partly theoretical and represent typical values at 23 °C. The specifications are provided for comparison purposes only and do not represent guaranteed properties. They must be verified by the user. | The burst pressure specifications for our tubings are partly theoretical and are based on the unit bar at a room temperature of 23 °C. The values are used for product comparison purposes, but do not represent guaranteed properties of our products. Pressure resistance decreases as temperatures rise. For safe operation, we recommend maintaining at least three times the safety margin (max. operating pressure = space pressure at the corresponding operating temperature /3).
