LLDPE

PE-2000® LLDPE’s greatest advantage over low density polyethylene is its superior environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR), withstanding 500 hours exposure to IGEPAL solution per ASTM D-1693 ESCR tests. Environmental stresses that can shorten the service life of tubing include: chemical exposure, aging, ultraviolet light, connection to barb-type fittings, or high vibration connections with compression fittings.

All colors except red comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520 (c) 3.2(a) for food contact applications.

Features:

• Greater tensile strength.
• Higher burst pressure.
• Superior stress and crack resistance.
• Puncture resistance.
• Impermeable to gasses and moisture.
