FEP Frequently Asked Questions

Do you sell, or can you produce, FEP Teflon(R) Tubing with a 0.65 mm OD x 0.12 mm ID? Could you also supply flanged tubing connectors for this tubing?

Unfortunately this diameter of tubing is much smaller than we are able to produce.

What are the chemical resistance properties of FEP tubing?

• FEP tubing is designed with enhanced chemical resistance, advanced gas and vapor permeability properties and excellent UV transmission ratings.
• Chemically inert to most industrial chemicals and solvents
• 100% virgin-grade, high-performance resins designed to resist stress cracking
• Non-flammable, self-extinguishing

How does FEP tubing compare to PTFE tubing?

FEP tubing is a more cost-effective alternative to Teflon tubing.
Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene tubing also provides increased clarity over PTFE with a higher coefficient of friction and lower continuous service temperature.
