When it comes to transporting viscous liquids from one part of a facility to another, there isn’t a better option than PFA tubing. PFA is a lot similar to PTFE tubing in terms of characteristics and properties. But what’s the difference? And why do some laboratories...

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) tubing is one of the most popular Teflon fluoropolymer tubing options. It is an original, so-called gold standard, first invented in 1940s. In contrast to the material’s popularity today, it was difficult to process PTFE a few decades...

FEP tubing offers the most comprehensive covering solutions for metal and other materials. Its lower shrink temperature among other fluoropolymers is one of the reasons why FEP covers are preferred over PTFE and PFA. It’s also easier to install for shielding...

Take a trip down the street and ask someone if they know what fluoropolymers are. Ignore the look they give you and then ask again if they now what Teflon is. You’ll most probably get an answer this time. Teflon is renowned for being used in frying pans to give them...
