Tubing, ETFE, 0.010 inch (0.25 mm) ID, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) OD, low pressure, 5 meter roll, ARE-Applied Research brand. 1 EA.
Additional Information:
ARE-Applied Research ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene), commonly known by the trade name Tefzel™, tubing is manufactured from virgin ETFE resin without the use of processing additives. ETFE tubing is widely used in low-pressure laboratory fluid handling applications due to its excellent chemical resistance, low permeability, and mechanical durability.
48510-10 is supplied as a convenient 5-meter roll of natural translucent ETFE tubing with a 0.010 inch (0.25 mm) internal diameter and 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) outer diameter. The small internal diameter helps minimize dead volume, making it well suited for low-flow analytical applications while the thicker wall construction provides excellent durability and a higher pressure rating.
Compared to PTFE tubing, ETFE offers lower gas permeability while maintaining excellent chemical compatibility with most laboratory solvents and reagents. ETFE is chemically inert except when used with certain halogenated compounds.
The translucent tubing wall allows visual monitoring of fluid movement while providing excellent dimensional stability and long service life.
