Extreme-Pressure Hard Plastic Tubing for Chemicals
- Semi-Flexible
- Compatible with Compression Tube Fittings
- Hard
- Temperature Range: -320° to 480° F
A lightweight alternative to stainless steel, this PEEK plastic tubing can handle extreme-pressure applications and has excellent impact resistance. It has the chemical resistance to withstand a variety of acids and other harsh substances. Tubing is opaque, so you cannot see inside the line to monitor flow. It is semi-flexible, so it’s good for gradual bends.
Note: The walls of this tubing will permanently collapse if bent too far.

High-Temperature Heat-Shrink Tubing
Use this tubing in applications where temperatures reach up to 500° F. It’s often used to insulate electronic components. Tubing resists abrasion and chemicals.
Use flexible tubing in applications where wire and cable need to bend around curves and corners.
PEEK tubing has a higher dielectric strength than PTFE, so it’s better for electrical insulation. It also withstands high-pressure applications and is often used in oil and gas exploration.
Dielectric strength is the maximum voltage a material can handle before it starts to breakdown. The higher the dielectric strength of a material, the better it is for preventing electricity, heat, or signal from dissipating from wire and cable.
- Shrink Ratio: 1.4:1
- Dielectric Strength: 3,500 V/mil
- Shrink Temperature: 575° F
- Temperature Range: -20° to 500° F
- Flexibility: Flexible
