The tubing features a low refractive index, making it ideal
for applications where operators must visually monitor materials passing
through the tube. It is available in a variety of configurations and sizes and
extrusion lengths can exceed 1,000 ft. This tubing is also chemically inert,
odorless, taste-less, non-wetting and non-leaching. It is often used in fluid
and material handling applications such as food & beverage, chemical
transfer or even downhole. In
addition, because it is FDA & USP Class VI compliant, it is widely used in
medical applications also. The tubing is offered in sizes from 0.004 inches up
to 4 inches in diameter, depending on the configuration, and capable of operating
at temperatures up to 400 degrees F. It is available in smoothbore, heat
shrink, convoluted, or as a corrugated tube.
