New capabilities and greater size ranges offer fluoroplastic
paratubing customers more versatility than ever before. The unique tubing consists
of two to four tubes longitudinally, thermally welded to create one conduit consisting
of multiple individual tubes. The paratubing offers the ability to run several
fluid lines as one entity and then split the tubes apart for branching to
different connectors when needed. Paratubing is available in the manufacturer
grade FEP and PFA and is offered in sizes up to 3-inches-in-diameter. These
materials offer a non-stick surface, are chemically inert and non-leaching and
both materials have a low refractive index, allowing for visual inspection by
operators. Also, paratubing is offered
in colors allowing for distinct identification of different fluid lines.
