Thermoplastic Tubing
Polyethylene
ƒ
ƒ
Parflex polyethylene tubing meets FDA, NSF Standard 51 for all food contact applications and
NSF-61 for potable water applications.
ƒ
ƒ
E-Series tubing is made of 100% virgin resin material.
ƒ
ƒ
Polyethylene tubing meets ASTM D-1693 (10% IGEPAL) for stress crack resistance.
ƒ
ƒ
Parflex also offers special PE tubing: PEFR (flame retardant) and HDPE (high density).
Nylon
ƒ
ƒ
Flexible nylon tubing is constructed of high-grade resins for strength and flexibility for routing
in tight spaces.
ƒ
ƒ
Semi-rigid high strength nylon is constructed of high-grade resins without the addition of plasticizers for
higher pressure tubing applications.
ƒ
ƒ
Pure Air Tubing (PAT) is the tubing choice for pure air systems (semiconductor) due to its cleanliness; in
addition, it offers excellent chemical and UV light resistance.
ƒ
ƒ
NTNA Tubing meets NSF Standard 51 for all food contact applications and may be used for instrumen-
tation lines, lubrication and process piping systems and oil and refrigerant lines.
Polypropylene
ƒ
ƒ
Polypropylene tubing meets FDA, NSF Standard 51 for all food contact applications.
ƒ
ƒ
Polypropylene tubing exhibits excellent chemical resistance to chlorinated water applications.
ƒ
ƒ
Black Polypropylene tubing is commonly used in outdoor applications where UV light stabilization is
required.
Polyurethane
ƒ
ƒ
Polyurethane tubing is a flexible, kink-resistant and abrasion-resistant material commonly used in pneu-
matic applications.
ƒ
ƒ
Polyurethane is available in multiple transparent and opaque colors for system color coding.
ƒ
ƒ
Polyurethane is available in the following durometers (measurement of material hardness):
Medium durometer: (90 – 95)
High durometer: (>95) for higher pressures
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
ƒ
ƒ
PVC tubing is made from 100% virgin resin material and meets all FDA specifications for materials in
contact with food and drugs.
ƒ
ƒ
PVC tubing is a very flexible, 70 durometer tubing. It is crystal-clear and ideal for situations where visible
fluid flow is necessary (i.e. sight gauges for tank identification).
All plastic tubing dimensions are laser monitored to ensure overall quality product.
Most tubing sizes are packaged in convenient 100-ft., 250-ft., 500-ft. and 1,000-ft. lengths.
