Abrasion-Resistant Hard Plastic Tubing for Chemicals

This durable tubing has the best abrasion and wear resistance of all our hard tubing for chemicals. It can withstand a variety of acids and other harsh substances. Tubing is semi-clear, so you get a limited view inside the line. It is semi-flexible, so it’s good for gradual bends.

PVDF tubing is the most economical option. It is also known as Kynar.

Tubing that meets UL 94 V-0 is flame retardant, so it delays the spread of flames to valuable equipment.

Semi-Flexible Hard Plastic Tubing for Food, Beverage, and Dairy

Semi-Flexible
Compatible with Compression Tube Fittings
Hard (Durometer 60D)
Temperature Range: -40° to 212° F
Specifications Met: FDA Compliant 21 CFR 177.2600, NSF/ANSI 51, NSF/ANSI 61, NSF/ANSI 372

Strong, yet pliable, this PVDF tubing is good for gradual bends and can handle repeated flexing. It is also known as Kynar. Suitable for use with food and beverage, it is made of FDA listed materials and meets NSF/ANSI 51 for food contact. Tubing also meets both NSF/ANSI 61 and NSF/ANSI 372 for use with drinking water systems.

High-Temperature 3D Printer Filaments

Parts made with these filaments remain strong and rigid in temperatures that would soften most plastics. They are a lightweight alternative to machined metal parts. Use with a fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printer to make parts that will be used near ovens, engines, and other hot machinery. These filaments require an all-metal extruder to reach the recommended printing temperatures. Print parts onto a heated bed to keep them from warping as they cool.

PVDF, also known as Kynar, is the most wear-resistant high-temperature material. Parts made from these filaments also hold up when exposed to UV rays.

Tensile strength is the best measure of a filament's overall strength. Similar to the stress applied on a rope during a game of tug-of-war, it's the amount of pulling force a material can handle before breaking. A higher rating means a stronger filament. A tensile strength of 5,000 psi and above is considered good; 12,000 psi and above is excellent.

Maximum exposure temperature is the point at which a printed part will begin to deform. Above this temperature, your printed parts will start to lose structural integrity.

Impact-Resistant Plastic Pellets

Absorbing impact without cracking or breaking, these plastic pellets are molded into parts that endure bumps, scrapes, and falls. Use them with injection molders, 3D printers, and other molding equipment.

PVDF pellets are flexible, weather resistant, and have the most chemical resistance of all these materials. Choose those with a higher melting temperature when more heat resistance is needed; however, they’re not as flexible as the other PVDF pellets. PVDF is also known as Kynar.

Wear-Resistant Plastic Pellets

With a low coefficient of friction, these pellets won't wear away from abrasion that’s often caused by contact with moving parts. Melt and mold them into desired shapes. All of these pellets are made from virgin resins and are compatible with various types of molding equipment, such as injection molders or 3D printers. They handle high temperatures without losing their mechanical properties.

PEEK and PVDF pellets stand up to acids, alkalis, and oils. PVDF pellets are more chemical resistant than PEEK pellets. They also withstand moisture better than PEEK pellets and won’t break down when exposed to UV rays.
