White High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Tubing, 3/16" ID, 5/16" OD, 1/16" Wall, 100' Length
This semi flexible, non-toxic white tubing is suitable for applications requiring extreme resistance to acids and alkalis. It is made of HDPE (high density polyethylene) which has good chemical resistance, electrical insulation, is easily fabricated, and does not absorb moisture. It has a Shore A Hardness rating of 65 for resistance to impact and puncture, and it has high tensile strength for longer life. This tubing has a maximum operating temperature of 180 degrees F.
Plastic tubing is used to transfer liquids, air, or solids, and it is characterized by a round, rectangular, or square shape and a hollow center. Plastic tubing is crimp-resistant and varies in bend radius (flexibility), chemical resistance, wall thickness, durometer hardness, and temperature and pressure handling abilities. The clarity of plastic tubing may be transparent (clear), translucent (semi-clear), or opaque (solid), and the tubing's coloring may indicate suitable applications. Barbed fittings are used to connect tubing or redirect flow in a fluid handling system. Plastic tubing is used in a wide variety of industries, such as agriculture, automotive, laboratory, and medicine. Applications for plastic tubing include blood and fluid handling, peristaltic pumps, electrical and thermal insulation, analytical systems, and food and beverage handling, among others.
