Description
PTFE Tubing is one of the common tubings used in microfluidics. Offered in a variety of metric-based diameters. PTFE tubing offers excellent chemical resistance and mechanical stability.
Generally, smaller ID means higher resistance and working pressures. As ID increases for a given OD, wall thickness (WT) of tubing decreases and is more susceptible to bursting.
Please see table below for various WT (in mm).
ID | OD | WT |
0.50 | 1.60 | 0.55 |
0.80 | 1.60 | 0.40 |
1.00 | 1.60 | 0.30 |
1.00 | 2.00 | 0.50 |
1.20 | 2.50 | 0.65 |
1.50 | 2.50 | 0.50 |
1.20 | 3.00 | 0.90 |
2.00 | 3.00 | 0.50 |
