Catalog Number - 48310-20-1C

Order the exact tubing length needed for your application with custom continuous length PFA tubing designed for low‑pressure laboratory and analytical fluid handling. Custom lengths can help reduce unnecessary fittings, minimize connection points, and simplify instrument installations where standard roll lengths may not be ideal.

48310-20-1C tubing is manufactured from PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy Alkane), a fluoropolymer that offers many of the advantages associated with PTFE while providing lower permeability, greater transparency, and improved performance at elevated temperatures and pressures. The translucent natural color allows users to visually monitor fluid movement, helping identify bubbles and verify flow conditions during operation.

You specify the required tubing length, allowing optimized routing for chromatography instruments, solvent delivery systems, and laboratory fluid transfer applications. Lengths of 15 meters or greater are supplied on a convenient spool for easier handling and storage. With an internal diameter of 0.50 mm and an outer diameter of 1.6 mm, this tubing is well suited for a variety of low‑pressure fluidic applications.

The tubing features a wall thickness of 0.55 mm and a pressure rating of 1450 psi (99.9 bar) under appropriate operating conditions. For safe operation and maximum service life, the tubing should not be exposed to temperatures exceeding 260°C.

This tubing complies with the RoHS EU Directive 2011/65/EU and Amendment (EU) 2015/863 regarding the restriction of hazardous substances.
