Polymer Tubing Drill. 0.8mm Polymeric Pin, Replacement for Flanging Tool. ARE-Applied Research brand. 10/PK.
Additional Info:
The 45099‑108‑010 Polymer Tubing Flanging Drills (10‑Pack) are precision replacement components designed for use with the MICROSOLV Flanging Tool, enabling accurate and repeatable cold flanging of polymer (plastic) tubing tips.
Each drill features a 0.8 mm polymeric pin, providing controlled internal support during the flaring process, allowing the tubing tip to form a uniform, dimensionally stable flange. The polymeric pin design is particularly suited for soft and semi‑flexible tubing materials, minimizing mechanical stress while maintaining consistent geometry.
When used with the flanging tool, these drills produce mechanically formed (cold‑formed) flares, eliminating the variability associated with heat‑based methods and resulting in:
Improved flange consistency
Reduced tubing deformation
Reliable sealing surfaces for connections
This drill configuration is optimized for general polymer tubing applications, including PTFE, FEP, PFA, ETFE, and similar materials commonly used in low‑pressure chromatography and fluidic systems.
The 10‑pack configuration is ideal for high‑throughput laboratories and multi‑user environments, ensuring availability and consistency across routine tubing preparation workflows.
Why Choose the 0.8 mm Polymeric Pin Drill
This drill is typically selected when:
Working with soft or semi‑rigid polymer tubing
A non‑metallic internal support is preferred during flaring
Minimizing tubing deformation is important
Consistent, repeatable flange geometry is required
The polymeric pin design provides controlled support while reducing stress on softer tubing materials.
