Fluoropolymers are some of the most versatile engineering materials known and have been used in nearly every field of modern industry, technology, and science. Their non-stick properties became commonly recognized by the consuming public when E. I. DuPont began marketing his Teflon™ brand for use on cookware, as a fiber treatment for stain resistance, and in other household applications.
Fluoropolymer material is recognized for its excellent resistance to heat—up to 500°F continuously. Lesser known is its usefulness in extremely cold temperatures. It will remain reasonably flexible to -100°F. Because fluoropolymers are almost universally inert to industrial chemicals and solvents, their use for corrosion protection has become one of their largest growth areas. With few exceptions, fluoropolymer tubing can handle virtually any corrosive chemical in use today.
NewAge offers one of the widest assortments of tubing products made of fluoropolymers by any supplier. We can meet most any need for straight tubing, corrugated (for increased bend radii), convoluted (for easier flush cleaning), or retractable coiled fluoropolymer tubing, along with injection-molded PFA compression fittings.
