PTFE Corrugated Tubing | Flexible Chemical & High-Temp Resistant Hose
SUKO High-Performance PTFE Corrugated Tubing
SUKO's PTFE Corrugated Tubing offers an exceptional combination of chemical resistance, thermal stability, and flexibility, making it the ideal choice for a wide range of demanding industrial applications. Engineered from 100% virgin PTFE resin, our corrugated tubing provides a reliable solution for fluid transfer, cable protection, and complex routing challenges where a tight bend radius is required.
The convoluted design allows for enhanced flexibility and kink resistance compared to standard smoothbore tubing, while retaining the outstanding properties of PTFE.
Key Features & Benefits
- Superior Chemical Inertness: Resistant to nearly all industrial chemicals, acids, and solvents.
- Wide Temperature Range: Can operate continuously in extreme temperatures from -65°C to +260°C (-85°F to +500°F).
- Exceptional Flexibility: The corrugated design allows for a very small bend radius without kinking or reducing the internal diameter.
- Non-Stick Surface: The low coefficient of friction of PTFE ensures easy flow of media and simplifies cleaning.
- UV and Weather Resistant: Excellent resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and weathering, making it suitable for outdoor use.
- FDA Compliant: Our PTFE materials can meet FDA standards for food and pharmaceutical contact applications.
Typical Applications
Our PTFE corrugated tubing is trusted by engineers and designers across various industries, including:
- Chemical Transfer: Transporting corrosive chemicals, acids, and bases.
- Automotive Systems: Fuel lines, vapor lines, and wire harness protection.
- Food and Beverage Processing: Transfer of foodstuffs, beverages, and sanitary applications.
- Pharmaceutical and Medical: High-purity fluid transfer and medical device components.
- Electrical and Electronics: Insulating and protecting wires and cables in high-temperature environments.
- Aerospace & Defense: Hydraulic and fuel systems requiring lightweight and durable tubing.
