PTFE

PTFE Tubing has become the gold standard in industries requiring the ultimate in lubricity, high temperature use, chemical resistance, biocompatibility, and precision extruded tolerances.

FEP

Applications where FEP tubing is chosen usually require more clarity, flexibility or a lower heat shrinkable temperature than PTFE.

PFA

PFA tubing is often the resin of choice when additional clarity, flexibility, and a higher continuous service temperature are required.

ETFE

ETFE tubing is used in applications requiring excellent impact resistance and good resistance to stress cracking.
