Co-Extruded Tubing Combines the Best Features of Two Durable Plastic Materials



Different Performance Characteristics for Inside & Outside

Southampton, PA - Now available from NewAge® Industries, Inc., is Hytrel®-Lined PVC Tubing, a unique co-extruded product that offers the performance features of two materials in one tube. Less costly than tubing made entirely of one high-performance material, Hytrel-Lined PVC Tubing is used in applications such as appliances, lawn and garden equipment, laboratories, vending machines, propane gas delivery, air sampling, computers, floor care equipment, thermal protection, and general fluid transfer.

Hytrel-Lined PVC Tubing is designed to offer the flexibility and durability of PVC tubing with a liner of inert, DuPont Dow Elastomers' Hytrel for resistance to oils, high temperatures, and gas permeability. A patented process molecularly bonds liner and jacket to make a virtually inseparable product. This cost-saving co-extrusion permits Hytrel-Lined PVC Tubing to be substituted for conventional reinforced PVC hose in many applications.

The Hytrel polyester core offers internal resistance to chemical attack, abrasion, and contamination, along with a low adherence of particulates. The black PVC jacket provides excellent resistance to abrasion, moisture, and U.V. Its pliability also provides a degree of shock resistance and insulates the tubing from electronic interference. All ingredients are FDA-sanctioned for use with food contact surfaces, and the tubing withstands repeated autoclaving with no separation of layers.
