How To Select Thermoplastic Tubing (STAMPED)
Size Choose appropriate outside diameters - tubing is always measured
on the OD
Temperature The maximum temperature of the material being conveyed
Application External conditions including abrasion, climate, heat, flexing,
crushing, kinking, and degrees of bending
Media The composition of the substance being conveyed and
chemical compatibility with the tubing
Pressure The maximum pressure of the system, including pressure spikes
Ends The appropriate end connection (barb, push to connect,
compression)
Delivery Testing, quality, packaging, and delivery requirements
