Tubing, PFA, 0.020 inch (0.50 mm) ID, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) OD, low pressure, 5 meter roll, ARE-Applied Research brand. 1 EA.
Additional Info:
Achieve reliable fluid transfer with high‑purity PFA tubing designed for low‑pressure laboratory and analytical applications. This tubing offers excellent chemical resistance, dimensional stability, and flexibility, making it suitable for a wide range of chromatography, fluid handling, and laboratory processes where inert flow paths are required.
48310-20 tubing is manufactured from PFA (Perfluoroalkoxy Alkane), a fluoropolymer that shares many of the desirable properties of PTFE (Teflon®) while offering lower permeability, greater transparency, and improved performance at elevated temperatures and pressures. The translucent construction allows visual confirmation of fluid movement, helping users monitor flow and identify bubbles or voids within the fluid path.
With an internal diameter of 0.50 mm and an outer diameter of 1.6 mm, this tubing is suitable for low‑pressure solvent delivery, sample transfer, and fluid routing applications. The tubing features a wall thickness of 0.55 mm and is rated to 1450 psi (99.9 bar) under appropriate operating conditions. For safe operation and long service life, temperatures should not exceed 260°C.
This tubing complies with the RoHS EU Directive 2011/65/EU and Amendment (EU) 2015/863 regarding the restriction of hazardous substances, supporting regulatory compliance in laboratory and industrial environments.
