Tubing, ETFE, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) ID, 1/8th inch (3.2 mm) OD, low pressure, 3 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. Compared to PTFE tubing, ETFE offers lower gas permeability while maintaining excellent compatibility with most laboratory solvents and reagents. ETFE is chemically inert except when used with certain halogenated compounds.
48555-65-3M is supplied as a convenient 3-meter roll of natural translucent ETFE tubing with a 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) internal diameter and 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) outer diameter. The larger internal diameter supports higher flow rates and greater fluid transfer volumes, making it well suited for solvent delivery, waste collection, reagent transfer, and general laboratory fluid handling applications. The thick wall construction provides durability and dependable performance with a pressure rating of 1000 psi (68.9 bar).
The translucent tubing wall allows visual monitoring of fluid movement and is suitable for use before and after HPLC pumps, including mobile phase delivery systems, solvent waste lines, reagent transport, and other low-pressure laboratory fluid pathways.
