SUKO PTFE Inner Flat Outer Corrugated Tube for Chemical Industry Fluid Transfer
SUKO PTFE Inner Flat Outer Corrugated Tube for Chemical Industry Fluid Transfer
Product Overview
SUKO’s PTFE Inner Flat Outer Corrugated Tube delivers exceptional chemical resistance and smooth fluid flow for demanding industrial applications. Engineered with an inner flat surface to minimize friction and an outer corrugated design for enhanced flexibility, this PTFE tubing is ideal for transferring aggressive chemicals, solvents, and high-purity fluids. Withstanding temperatures up to 260°C and resistant to virtually all corrosive media, it ensures long-term reliability in harsh environments like chemical plants, pharmaceutical facilities, and semiconductor manufacturing [2][3].
Key Features
- Superior Material Performance:
- Made from Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), offering unmatched chemical inertness against acids, alkalis, and organic solvents [2].
- Operates in a wide temperature range (-180°C to 260°C), maintaining integrity under extreme thermal stress [2].
- Optimized Design:
- Inner Flat Surface: Reduces turbulence and particulate buildup, ensuring laminar flow and minimal maintenance.
- Outer Corrugation: Provides high flexibility and vibration resistance, accommodating complex installations [3].
- Durability and Safety:
- High Pressure Resilience: Robust construction withstands significant working and burst pressures (see specifications below).
- Non-Toxic and FDA-Compliant: Safe for use in food, pharmaceutical, and high-purity applications.
