1/2" Natural Color PTFE Tubing (9.53mm ID)
Part Number #JR-T-4043
$2.95
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) tubing is chemically inert and suitable for low-pressure applications. Typically 1/16" OD tubing holds up to 62 bar (900 psi) and 1/8" up to 35 bar (500 psi).
Solid colors identify the tubing ID. Black PTFE, available in two IDs, is recommended for light sensitive applications such as enzymatic reactions, luminescent reactions, connecting to a flow cell, and radioactive HPLC.
Maximum Continuous Operating Temperature for PTFE Tubing
The maximum recommended operating temperature for VICI Jour PTFE tubing is 100° C (continuous).
Tech Tips
- Use PFA instead of PTFE if gas permeability is an issue.
- Use black PTFE for light-sensitive applications such as enzymatic reactions, luminescent reactions, connection to a flow cell, and radioactive HPLC.
