FEP-Lined Tubing
DelStar Technologies,
Inc. announced a new
Coretec® FEP tubing
product, designed to
offer cost effective
solutions for high
performance fluid
and gas processing
applications.
The new tubing has
an inner lining of
Teflon® FEP (fluorinated
ethylene propylene)
encased in a protective, and less expensive, LDPE
(low density polyethylene) jacket.
DelStar Technologies is now stocking five sizes of this
FEP-lined fractional tubing. The FEP inside diameters
(I.D.) range from 0.170 to 0.625" (4 to 15 mm), and the
LDPE outside diameters (O.D.) range from 0.25 to 0.75"
(6 to 19 mm). The product is available in custom lengths.
By lining the inner surface of LDPE tubing with FEP, this
tubing provides the benefits of FEP at a percentage of the
cost. The FEP lining offers a chemically inert, non-adherent
surface, with a very low coefficient of friction and low
permeability. It also exhibits excellent chemical resistance,
as well as thermal and electrical stability.
Utilizing Coretec FEP-lined tubing is a cost-effective way
to ensure accurate and dependable performance. It is
ideal for industrial pumps processing corrosive chemicals,
fuels, solvents or acids. Its non-stick innerlining handle
adhesives or paint spray well, and allow for easy flush
cleaning. Because FEP offers no trace of extractables, it
serves well for distilled beverage production, water or
environmental sampling, pigment processing or any critical
fluid handling systems where cleanliness is important.
DelStar Technologies specializes in custom work and is
willing to stock proprietary configurations for their customers.
Coretec products can be extruded in a variety of
custom colors and sizes, with up to a 12.75" (32 cm) outside
diameter. Maximum available lengths will vary with
diameter and wall thickness.
DelStar Technologies, Inc. is a licensed manufacturer of
DuPont™ Teflon®.
