Background
As a member of the fluoropolymer family,
FEP Tubing has found a home in applications ranging from environmental monitoring equipment to medical devices and electronics applications.
Zeus
manufactures a
wide range of
custom and stock
sizes of FEP
tubing and
heat shrinkable
FEP.
Teflon Tubing
FEP Tubing is often referred to under the trade name "TeflonŽ Tubing".
Teflon is actually three different
polymer resins
developed by
DuPont: FEP,
PTFE, and
PFA.
Applications
Applications where
FEP tubing is chosen usually require more clarity, flexibility or a lower heat shrinkable temperature than
PTFE. More information on the properties of
FEP resin
can be found in our
Tech Info
section.
