Fluorotherm - Model PTFE - Fluoropolymer Tubing
PTFE is the classic, original, and gold standard of fluoropolymer tubing. PTFE was the "miracle" fluoropolymer invented in the 1940's by DuPont - a product originally without a market and hard to process. Most other materials continue to use PTFE as a reference for chemical ...

Fluorotherm - Model FEP - Fluoropolymer Tubing
The cost-effective brother of PTFE, FEP was developed as a conventionally melt-processible fluoropolymer in response to the limitations and initial difficulties in processing ...
-
Fluorotherm - Model PFA - Fluoropolymer Tubing
Combining the best of PTFE and FEP, PFA was developed in the late 1960's in response to a need for a resin with chemical and use temperatures closer to PTFE, yet a resin that would retain the conventional melt processability of ...

Fluorotherm - Model ETFE - Fluoropolymer Tubing
ETFE is a fluoropolymer that is chemically and structurally similar to polyolefins such as polyethylene, thus providing a higher abrasion, impact, and crush resistance than its fully fluorinated (perfluoropolymer) counterparts -PTFE, FEP, and ...

Fluorotherm - Model PVDF - Fluoropolymer Tubing
PVDF, or Polyvinylidene Fluoride Fluoropolymer, provides good abrasion and wear properties with low permeability. PVDF tubing is used in a variety of industries such as aerospace, semiconductor, medical, automotive, fiber optics and marine tanks. PVDF's upper use temperature of 250°F is lower than PFA; however, it is the material of choice in high purity and chemical resistance applications such as ...

Fluorotherm - Heat Shrink Tubing
Currently, Fluorotherm offers FEP 1.3:1 shrink ratio tubing and FEP roll covers. FEP in these sizes is among the most popular heat shrink tubing product used for snug, protective jacketing for metal or other parts that are exposed to adverse, aggressive environments such as corrosion, chemicals, moisture and impact. The wide use of FEP heat shrink tubing over
