Teflon Tubing

nexoAir PTFE tubing

commonly referred to as Teflon™ tubing, has become an invaluable commodity in the industrial world due to its remarkable range of properties. It is made from polytetrafluoroethylene and capabilities such as chemical resistance, heat tolerance and friction minimization make it ideal for a large spectrum of industries and applications, from laboratory use to chemical processing and industrial settings.

Applications

In the laboratory, PTFE tubing is indispensable — from handling corrosive chemicals to transporting food and drugs without contamination. It’s uniquely suited for chemical processing plants where it ensures safety while ensuring efficiency in dealing with harsh substances.
PTFE tubing is also used in the aerospace and automotive industries. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and pressure makes it a reliable choice for these applications. In the electrical industry, Teflon tubing is used as insulation for high-frequency wires.

Teflon tubing is also used in medical devices, such as catheters, due to its chemical resistance and lubricity. It is also used in plumbing as a corrosion-resistant pipe or tubing. In automation systems, PTFE tubing is used to transport gases and liquids due to its ability to withstand high pressure, high temperature and corrosion resistance.
