GORE STA-PURE Series PFL Tubing for Chemicals

Dec. 16, 2009
Watson-Marlow's multi-layer tubing is able to maintain a stable flow rate for thousands of hours while pumping aggressive chemicals.

GORE High Resilience Tubing: Style 400 is expanded PTFE multi-layer tubing featuring high-performance Viton filler that is able to maintain a stable flow rate for thousands of hours while pumping aggressive chemicals such as Nitric and Sulfuric acids as well as aromatic hydrocarbons like Toluene and Xylene.

 

At continuous pressures of 60 psi, consistent flow rates are achieved throughout the lifetime of Style 400 tubing. While chemicals will attack most other types of tubing, the secret behind the resilience of Style 400 is Viton GF-600S, a peroxide-cured fluoroelastomer based on DuPont advanced polymer architecture.

 

Style 400 tubing is currently available with internal diameters ranging from 1.6 up to 12.7 mm, with wall thickness from 1.6 up to 4.8 mm to provide reliable metering of aggressive chemicals and increased process consistency.
