Fluoropolymer Etched Tubing has optimized shelf life.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Wed, 04 Mar 2009 08:32:07 -0500

Etched Fluoropolymer tubing exhibits strength that lengthens shelf life and also bolsters intensity of etch, creating strong bond when fused to other objects. Lubricity of fluoropolymer tubing surface hampers bondability/wettability, so etching is required to alter molecular structure of surface. Once this is done, tubing can be bonded to almost any surface. Etching services are available for products on ID, OD, or both, and sizes range from .060-4 in. ID.

Heavy Wall Tubing is built to withstand high pressures.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet News) — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 07:43:08 -0500

Tubing is available that has undergone autofrettage process, which subjects internal bore to pressure high enough to plastically deform it. This results in putting inner wall into compression, providing residual compressive stress once pressure is released. Use of this technique helps extend tube fatigue life.
