Tubing, PTFE, 0.020 inch (0.50 mm) ID, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) OD, low pressure, black, 10 meter roll, ARE-Applied Research brand. 1 EA.
Additional Info:
47240-50-10M ARE‑Applied Research PTFE Tubing is a high‑purity, low‑pressure fluid transfer solution engineered for HPLC, UHPLC, LC‑MS, and general laboratory applications, delivering increased internal diameter for higher flow capacity along with black pigmentation for visual differentiation in multi‑line systems.
Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE resin, this tubing contains no additives or plasticizers, except for trace pigment used solely for visual identification, ensuring low extractables and compatibility with sensitive analytical workflows.
Precision Dimensions – High Flow Optimization
Inner Diameter (ID): 0.020" (0.50 mm)
Outer Diameter (OD): 1/16" (1.6 mm)
Wall Thickness: 0.55 mm
Tolerance (ID & OD): ± 0.10 mm
✅ Larger ID supports higher flow rates and reduced backpressure compared to smaller ID tubing
Black Pigmentation – Visual Line Identification
Black‑pigmented PTFE tubing
Enables:
Visual differentiation of fluid lines
Organized system layouts
Easier maintenance and troubleshooting
✅ Used for visual identification only (no functional or standardized color coding implied)
Low‑Pressure Chromatography Performance
Designed for low‑pressure fluid paths, including:
Pre‑pump mobile phase delivery
Post‑detector solvent waste lines
General solvent transfer
Pressure Rating: 725 psi (49.9 bar)
✅ Ideal for extended routing and higher flow applications
Virgin PTFE Construction – High Purity & Inertness
Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE
No additives (except trace pigment)
Chemically inert and non‑reactive
✅ Minimizes contamination risk in LC‑MS and trace‑level analytical workflows
Broad Chemical & Thermal Resistance
Resistant to:
Organic solvents
Acids and bases
Aqueous mobile phases
Maximum Temperature: 260 °C
✅ Suitable for demanding and elevated‑temperature environments
Micro‑Porous Structure – Application Consideration
PTFE tubing contains micropores allowing slight gas exchange
Important when working with:
Degassed solvents
Oxygen‑sensitive workflows
✅ Consider alternative tubing where gas impermeability is critical
Flexible & Durable Design
Flexible for long‑distance routing and installation
Durable for repeated lab use
Maintains clear visual identification across complex setups
