Chemical   Virtually total chemical resistance at temperatures up to 260 C mean that tubing can handle the transport of all fluid chemicals and solvents. In small sizes such as automatic laboratory analysis equipment to 1000 mm diameter linings in process plant. Tubing can also be used to protect less resistant materials such as glass or stainless steel on stirrers, thermometer probes and vat heaters.

Mechanical   The combination of low friction and temperature resistance allows fluoroplastic tubing to be used in applications such as sleeve bearings, push-pull cables, non-stick roller covering etc.

Electrical   Due to the excellent dielectric and other properties combined, thin wall tubing finds many unique applications in electric and electronic engineering. Insulation of connections in hot environments such as toasters, soldering irons etc., very high voltage sleeving, very fine bore sleeving is used in miniature components which is unaffected by the soldering temperature.

Medical   Inert, non-toxic and bio-compatible are properties sought after by medical device manufacturers. Our tubing finds applications as intravenous catheters, catheter introducers, angiographic catheters etc. Medical tubing is made under GMP conditions and packed and sealed in clean-rooms.

PTFE, FEP, PFA, Tefzel® & PVDF

Over 250 different sizes held in stock   

See our Standard size list for all sizes listed by ID from different international standards

FLUOROPLASTIC TUBING has many applications throughout industry. The unique properties allow the tubing to solve problems possible with no other material.

Special Tubing

 Our fluoroplastic thin wall tubing is available in hundreds of standard sizes. However each customer has different demands and we are always pleased to produce a special tube to order. Small volume production runs are normal to us, and therefore the very large minimum order requirements of the mainstream plastics industry are not required.

• Close Tolerances for medical, electronic, and instrument applications.
• Ready Cut. Tubing can be supplied cut to any length.
• Coloured Tubing. All tubing can be made in fourteen different colours, and also with coloured stripe.
• Special Sizes. Virtually any size of tubing can be extruded from 0.1 mm diameter to 150 mm diameter.
• Very large sizes available - up to 1000mm diameter
• Microbore Tubing : Our UT range has inside diameters from 0.2  to 1.0 mm with a very thin wall of 0.1mm, (from stock)
• Profiles. We welcome enquires for extruded profiles no matter how complex.
