CUSTOM ITEM: Tubing, PTFE, 0.040 inch (1.0 mm) ID, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) OD, low pressure, Your custom continuous length tubing, priced per meter. ARE-Applied Research brand.
Additional Info:
49210-40-1C ARE‑Applied Research PTFE Tubing is a made‑to‑order, custom continuous length solution engineered for HPLC, UHPLC, LC‑MS, and general laboratory applications, providing maximum internal diameter for ultra‑high flow capacity along with continuous lengths to eliminate connections and reduce system dead volume.
Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE resin, this tubing contains no additives or plasticizers, ensuring low extractables and compatibility with sensitive analytical workflows.
✅ Review custom order guidelines and non‑returnable terms for made‑to‑order tubing
Custom Continuous Length – Built to Your Specification
Supplied in user‑defined continuous lengths
Priced per meter
Eliminates unions and excess fittings
Reduces dead volume and potential leak points
✅ Ideal for bulk fluid transfer systems, OEM integration, and optimized routing
✅ Recommended for finalized system designs and validated applications
Precision Dimensions – Ultra High Flow Optimization
Inner Diameter (ID): 0.040" (1.0 mm)
Outer Diameter (OD): 1/16" (1.6 mm)
Wall Thickness: 0.30 mm

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 materials when gas impermeability is critical
Flexible & Durable Design
Flexible for custom routing and long continuous runs
Durable under repeated laboratory use
Natural translucent appearance allows visual confirmation of flow
✅ Supports efficient installation and maintenance
Spool Supply for Longer Lengths
Lengths ≥ 15 meters supplied on a spool
Reduces kinking and improves handling
Enables clean installation for extended runs
✅ Ideal for large-scale systems and continuous fluid paths
Regulatory Compliance
Compliant with:
RoHS EU Directive 2011/65/EU
Amendment (EU) 2015/863
✅ Meets global environmental and safety standards
Available Standard Length Options
✅ Use pre-cut lengths if continuous tubing is not required:
Typical Applications
Bulk HPLC mobile phase delivery systems
High‑volume solvent transfer and routing
Continuous solvent lines (pre‑ and post‑pump)
LC‑MS fluid transfer
OEM instrument integration
Important Usage Notes
Not intended for high‑pressure HPLC pump head connections
Consider permeability when using degassed or oxygen‑sensitive solvents
Ensure proper fittings for secure, leak‑free connections
