General description
Economical, flexible PTFE tubing is ideal for use at pressures up to 500 psi (35 kg/cm2). Use in automatic analyzer, postcolumn reaction, preparative scale systems, in-stream sampling devices, and when monitoring physiologically important compounds.
The maximum recommended operating temperature for PTFE is 200 °C, but short term exposure to higher temperatures seldom causes damage.
Application
