Types of Fluoropolymer Tubing
• PTFE (PolyTetraFluoroEthylene)• FEP (Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene)• PFA (PerFluoroAlkoxy)
PTFE Tubing
PTFE is the fluorocarbon-based tubing that can be used in various application because of its following characteristics:• Chemical Resistance• High and Low Temperature Capability• Translucent Nature• Electric and Chemical Inert.
Physical Properties of PTFE
Here are the physical properties of PTFE Fluoropolymer Tubing:
S.No. Name of Property Range
1. Hardness 50-65 Shore D
2. Tensile Strength 2000-3000 Psi
3. Temperature Range -454° F to 500° F
FEP Tubing
FEP tubing is know to its excellent UV transmission property. The Teflon FEP tubing:• It has excellent optical clarity.• Offers protection from chemical and electrical products.• Lower heat shrink temperature then the PTFE.• More flexible then the PTFE tubing.
Physical Properties of FEP Tubing
S.No. Name of Property Range
1. Hardness 55-60 Shore D
2. Tensile Strength 4000 Psi
3. Temperature Range -454° F to 400° F
4. Elongation at Break 250-330 %
PFA Tubing
PFA is a fluoroplastic which has highest temperature rating among the other fluoropolymer tubings, which is also chemical resistant in nature. These types of tubing can be used for the applications in which purity and clear view of the transmission is required. Features of Teflon PFA Tubing:• It has high temperature range then the FEP.• Non-shedding.• Perfect FDA Compliant.• Non-flammable.
Physical Properties of PFA Tubing
S.No. Name of Property Range
1. Hardness 55-60 Shore D
2. Tensile Strength 4200 Psi
3. Temperature Range -320° F to 500° F
4. Elongation at Break 400%
