Norprene® A-60-F Food Process Tubing


Norprene® A-60-F Tubing for Food and Beverage Processing

Formulated to withstand the high temperatures frequently occurring during food and beverage processing, Norprene® Food Process Tubing will outlast and outperform virtually all other food grade tubings. Even following extended exposure to heat and ozone, Norprene® Food Process Tubing will not crack or deteriorate as commonly found when using traditional rubber tubings.

Extremely flexible, Norprene® Food Process Tubing resists kinks and retains its shape while installing quickly and easily. Its excellent flexural fatigue resistance makes it the absolute best choice for use in peristaltic pumps often found in dispensing equipment.

Repeatedly autoclavable, Norprene® Food Process Tubing can be steam cleaned in place, eliminating the need for frequent tubing replacement. When harsh sanitizing solutions are used, it exhibits exceptional chemical resistance and is entirely unaffected by a wide variety of cleaning solutions.

Also available with reinforcement to withstand elevated working pressure.

Features

  • Temperature resistant from -60°F to 275°F
  • Compatible with virtually all common sanitizers and cleaners
  • Can be autoclaved repeatedly
  • Meets FDA, 3-A and NSF criteria

            Fluran® F-5500-A Tubing


            Fluran® F-5500-A Tubing, Severe Environment Tubing

            Made of a proprietary fluoroelastomer, Fluran® Severe Environment Tubing has both the physical and chemical characteristics that make it ideal for severe environments, such as dry cleaning fluid lines and solvent recovery systems, where other flexible tubings fail. Fluran® Severe Environment Tubing can be used in continuous service with temperatures as high as 400°F (204°C) and has excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals, oils, fuels, solvents and most mineral acids.

            This opaque, black tubing helps protect light-sensitive materials being transferred and will not prematurely crack and age when exposed to ozone, sun and weather. It is highly flexible and resilient, making it the ideal choice in peristaltic pumping of extremely corrosive materials. A food grade formulation is available upon request.

            Features

            • Provides continuous service at temperatures up to 400°F (204°C)
            • Excellent resistance to corrosive chemicals, oils, fuels and solvents
            • Resists ozone, sunlight and weathering
            • Opaque black color helps protect light sensitive fluid

                    Tygon® Silver Antimicrobial Tubing


                    Tygon® Silver Antimicrobial Tubing
                    Is Your Tubing Protected Against Microbes?

                    Microorganisms are living cells so small that most can only be seen with a microscope -- they are a type of microorganism found everywhere and include bacteria, fungi and algae. Growth of microbes on many materials can lead to foul odors, discoloration and formation of mildew and biofilm. In the case of tubing, microbes can contaminate the material being transferred, as well as degrade the tubing itself.

                    Antimicrobial Technology

                    Tygon® Silver Antimicrobial Tubing is formulated with a silver based compound on the inner surface at the point of fluid contact; the tubing outer surface can be treated in cases where bacterial buildup on the O.D. is a concern.

                    Features

                    • Plasticizer-free inner bore
                    • Formulated with a silver based compound on I.D. surface
                    • O.D. surface can also be formulated with a silver based compound
                    • Reduces formulation of biofilm and mildew
                    • Inhibits growth of microbes
                    • Will not discolor
                    • Meets FDA criteria
                    • Meets NSF 51 criteria

                          Tygon® SE-200 Inert Tubing


                          Tygon® Formulation SE-200 Tubing

                          Without sacrificing the flexibility, glass-like clarity or outstanding bend radius for which Tygon® tubing is known, Tygon® Inert Tubing can handle many applications where flexible tubing of the past could not be used. Its FEP inner liner provides the ultimate in chemical resistance and can handle a wide variety of fluids from corrosives to MEK-based solvents. The liner is inert, meaning it will not extract or contaminate fluids being transferred. The fluid path will not impart odor or taste, making it well-suited for food and beverage use. It meets FDA criteria for food and beverage applications, as well as USP Class VI criteria for biocompatibility.

                          Tygon® Inert Tubing combines all the benefits of Tygon® with the inertness of a fluoropolymer, providing superior performance in many applications and industries.


                          Features

                          • Crystal clear for easy visual flow monitoring
                          • Better flexibility than typical rigid fluoropolymer tubings
                          • Chemically resistant and inert
                          • Non-contaminating fluid path
