Key facts

Product Advantages

heat- and steam-resistant material, material with excellent non-stick properties, material is non-stick and therefore easy to clean, NSF/ANSI 51 approval (depending on the model), food compliant (FDA/EU...) depending on the model, antistatic and electrically conductive in accordance with ATEX 94/9/EC (depending on the type), good weldability, tubes are autoclavable or steam sterilisable

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)
Specifications of the wall	compliant with SEMI F57 and C90, non-flammable (UL 94: V0)

Properties

Chemical Properties	good resistance to solvents, good UV resistance, weather-resistant, free from paint wetting impairment substances (LABS), low extractability, iow permeation, chemical inertness, good resistance to aggressive chemicals
Mechanical Properties	high mechanical strength and surface hardness, high resistance to stress cracking, very low sliding and static friction expressed by a low coefficient of friction, high elongation at break
Physical Properties	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

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 = ambient pressure at the corresponding operating temperature /3).
