Tubing, PTFE, 0.010 inch (0.25 mm) ID, 1/16th inch (1.6 mm) OD, low pressure, black, Your custom continuous length tubing, priced per meter. ARE-Applied Research brand.
Additional Information:
47240-40-1C ARE‑Applied Research PTFE Tubing is a made‑to‑order, custom continuous length solution engineered for HPLC, UHPLC, LC‑MS, and general laboratory applications, delivering higher flow capacity and uninterrupted tubing runs for optimized system performance.
Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE resin, this tubing contains no additives or plasticizers, except for trace pigment for visual identification, ensuring low extractables and compatibility with sensitive analytical workflows.
✅ Review custom order guidelines and non‑returnable terms for made‑to‑order tubing
Custom Continuous Length – Built to Your Specification
Supplied in user‑defined continuous lengths
Priced per meter
Eliminates additional unions and connections
Reduces leak points and dead volume
✅ Ideal for custom systems, OEM builds, and optimized fluid routing
✅ Recommended for finalized system designs and validated applications
Precision Dimensions – Higher Flow Optimization
Inner Diameter (ID): 0.010" (0.25 mm)
Outer Diameter (OD): 1/16" (1.6 mm)
Wall Thickness: 0.675 mm
Tolerance (ID & OD): ± 0.10 mm
✅ Larger ID provides higher flow rates and reduced backpressure
Black Pigmentation – Visual Line Identification
Black‑pigmented PTFE tubing
Allows:
Visual differentiation of fluid lines
Organized system layout
Easier maintenance and troubleshooting
✅ Used for visual identification only (not functional or standardized color coding)
Low‑Pressure Chromatography Performance
Designed for low‑pressure fluid paths, including:
Pre‑pump mobile phase delivery
Post‑detector waste lines
General solvent transfer
Pressure Rating: 800 psi (55.2 bar)
✅ Suitable for long continuous tubing runs with stable performance
Virgin PTFE Construction – High Purity & Inertness
Manufactured from 100% virgin PTFE
No additives (except trace pigment)
Chemically inert and non‑reactive
✅ Minimizes contamination in LC‑MS and trace‑level analytical workflows
Broad Chemical & Thermal Resistance
Resistant to:
Organic solvents
Acids and bases
Aqueous mobile phases
Maximum Temperature: 260 °C
✅ Suitable for demanding and extended-use environments
Micro‑Porous Structure – Application Consideration
PTFE tubing contains micropores allowing slight gas exchange
Important for:
Degassed solvents
Oxygen‑sensitive workflows
✅ Consider alternative materials where gas impermeability is required
Flexible & Durable Design
Flexible for custom routing and system integration
Durable under repeated lab use
Maintains clear line identification in multi‑line systems
✅ Supports efficient installation and long-term use
Spool Supply for Longer Lengths
Lengths ≥ 15 meters supplied on a spool
Reduces kinking and handling issues
Supports clean installation for long continuous runs
✅ Ideal for large-scale or complex systems
Regulatory Compliance
Compliant with:
RoHS EU Directive 2011/65/EU
Amendment (EU) 2015/863
✅ Meets global environmental and safety standards
Available Standard Length Options
✅ Use pre-cut lengths if continuous tubing is not required:
Typical Applications
Custom HPLC mobile phase delivery systems
Continuous solvent routing (pre‑ and post‑pump)
LC‑MS fluid transfer lines
OEM instrument manufacturing
Laboratory system optimization
Important Usage Notes
Not intended for high‑pressure HPLC pump connections
Black pigmentation is for visual identification only
Consider permeability when using degassed or oxygen‑sensitive solvents
Ensure proper fittings for secure, leak‑free installation
