Soft Plastic Tubing for Air and Water

This general purpose PVC tubing is the industry standard for air and water applications. Tubing is clear, so you can easily monitor flow. It is flexible to easily bend around objects.
Masterkleer tubing is more economical than Tygon tubing.
- Flexible
- Compatible with Barbed Tube Fittings
- Hardness: Soft (Durometer 70A)
- Temperature Range: -40° to 140° F
Soft Plastic Tubing for Chemicals

Use this general purpose PVC tubing with a variety of chemicals. Tubing is clear, so you can easily monitor flow. It is flexible, so it bends easily around objects.
PVC tubing is the most economical option.
High-Temperature Abrasion-Resistant Soft
Rubber Tubing for Food, Beverage, and Dairy

- Flexible
- Compatible with Barbed Tube Fittings
- Soft (Durometer 65A)
- Temperature Range: -60° to 450° F
Not only can this tubing handle the highest temperatures of all our soft tubing for food, beverage, and dairy, it also has thick, silicone rubber walls for superior abrasion and crush resistance. Tubing is made of FDA listed materials. Free of plasticizers like DEHP, it won’t impart tastes or odors to the fluid passing through it. Tubing is semi-clear, so you get a limited view inside the line. It is flexible, so it bends easily around objects.
Abrasion-Resistant Soft Rubber Tubing for Fuel


- Flexible
- Compatible with Barbed Tube Fittings
- Soft (Durometer 70A)
- Temperature Range: -40° to 180° F
This polyurethane tubing is soft enough to handle continuous bending and flexing, yet tough enough to resist tearing and abrasion. Use it in applications requiring movement, such as metering (peristaltic) pumps and robotics. Tubing is semi-clear, so you get a limited view inside the line.
General Purpose Copper Tubing

This tubing has good corrosion resistance and excellent heat transfer qualities. It is seamless, which provides a smooth interior for unrestricted flow. It can be flared without splitting. All tubing meets international standards for copper tubing.
- Temperature Range: -20° to 400° F
- Bendable: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM B68, ASTM B75
- Compatible Tube Fittings: Solder Connect
Plastic Barbed Tube Fittings for Air and Water
Fittings have barbs that grip onto tubing.
Acetal fittings won’t absorb water and lose strength, even in high-humidity environments.

- Temperature Range: -40° to 175° F
- Tubing: Use with firm or soft (Durometer 40A-80A) polyurethane rubber or PVC plastic
Inline tees are also known as branch tees.
Tube Supports for Brass Compression Tube Fittings for Air and Water

Use these sleeves with brass compression nuts and fittings to create a seal on plastic and rubber tubing. They are brass, so they won’t damage tubing.
- Temperature Range: -75° to 550° F
- Tubing: Use with hard or firm (Rockwell 15T 1-15T 60) nylon plastic, polyethylene plastic, polypropylene plastic, or polyurethane rubber

Metal Barbed Hose Fittings for Air and Water
Slide the barbed end into rubber hose and secure with the appropriate clamp or crimp-on hose ferrule.
Brass fittings are softer than other metal fittings, so they’re easier to thread together. Plain brass fittings have good corrosion resistance. Nickel-plated brass fittings resist corrosion better than plain brass fittings.
Aluminum fittings are lighter in weight than other metal fittings. They have good corrosion resistance.
Stainless steel fittings have very good corrosion resistance. 303 stainless steel fittings won’t rust when exposed to water, making them good for areas that require frequent cleanings. Fittings with a threaded end are also known as hose nipples.
Hose connectors are also known as hose menders and splicers. Use them to connect lengths of hose or to repair damaged hose.
Metric, UN/UNF (SAE Straight), and BSPP male threads with gasket protect against leaks.

Aluminum Quick-Connect Pipe for Compressed Air

- For Use With: Air, Coolant, Nitrogen, Oil
- Maximum Pressure: 230 psi @ 72° F
- Specifications Met: ASTM B241
- Fittings: Use Quick-Disconnect Aluminum
Build a compressed air system in half the time it would take to build a copper or steel system. Also known as Unipipe, this pipe is part of a quick-connect system. The compatible fittings connect to this pipe when you finger tighten their collar and then use a wrench for the final quarter turn. A compression ring and O-ring inside the fitting seal it onto this pipe.
Choose blue or gray pipe for easy identification. Blue pipe is often used for compressed air systems. Gray pipe is often used for vacuum systems.
Use a deburring scraper (sold separately) to smooth rough edges left behind after trimming the pipe to size.

Place the tool over the end of your tube and twist to deburr.

Polished Multipurpose 304 Stainless Steel
Polished to either a brushed or mirror-like finish, this material is widely used to fabricate decorative enclosures and industrial workstations. The sheets, strips, bars, and adhesive-back foil are covered with a protective peel-off film. 304 stainless steel is a good all-around choice for a wide range of applications. It maintains its corrosion resistance in temperatures up to 1500° F.
Brushed #4 is often called a satin finish; it’s similar to a #3 finish, except the grain lines are finer. Rectangular and round tubes are polished on the outside.

Ultra-High-Temperature Quartz Glass Tubes

- Color: Clear
- Max. Temperature: 2000° F
- Fabrication: Annealed
Blistering temperatures won’t melt these quartz tubes, and rapid temperature shifts won’t cause them to crack. Even tougher than borosilicate, they can be used in furnaces and ovens heated up to 2000° F. These highly pure tubes are often used in laboratories because they won’t leach impurities into samples or contaminate chemical reactions. Quartz tubes are optically clear and have excellent UV transmission, making them ideal for UV purification systems.
