Hard Plastic Tubing for Food and Beverage
Strong, hard walls give this tubing extra support in high-pressure and vacuum applications. It’s made of FDA listed materials, so it’s suitable for use with food and beverage. Free of plasticizers like DEHP, it won’t impart tastes or odors to the fluid passing through it.
PVC tubing has harder walls than polyethylene tubing and can handle higher pressures. It meets NSF/ANSI Standard 51 for food contact. Tubing is rigid and will not bend. It is clear, so you can easily monitor flow.
- Rigid
- Compatible with Socket Connect Tube Fittings
- Hard (Durometer 80D)
- Temperature Range: -40° to 140° F
- Specifications Met: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 175.300, NSF/ANSI 51
High-Temperature Electrical-Insulating Tube Sleeving
This sleeving is often used to insulate connections in transformers, relays, and solenoids. It prevents electricity and heat from dissipating from wire and cable. When exposed to flame, it will self-extinguish and produce a nonconductive ash. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. Made of silicone-coated fiberglass, it resists chemicals.
Electrical-Insulating Tube Sleeving
Add a layer of insulation to prevent electricity and heat from dissipating from wire and cable. This sleeving is often used in motors, transformers, and generators. Made of coated fiberglass, it resists abrasion, acids, alkalies, and chemicals.
Acrylic-coated sleeving is more flexible than vinyl-coated sleeving, so it bends around tight corners. It resists solvents and oil.
Vinyl-coated sleeving resists wax and alcohol. Sleeving is flame-rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material.
Expandable Electrical-Insulating Tube Sleeving
A specially formulated silicone rubber coating allows this fiberglass sleeving to stretch over items during installation; it then tightens around its contents for a secure fit. Often used in motors, generators, and transformers, it prevents electricity and heat from dissipating from wire and cable. It has good chemical resistance.
Chemical-Resistant Tube Sleeving
Made of PVC, this sleeving resists chemicals, oil, and acids. It’s flame rated VW-1 to meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames based on a timed test with vertically suspended material. Because this sleeving is non-expandable, it does not stretch, so it’s best for applications where you know the exact diameter of the items you need to protect.
