Chemical PFA Tubing 1/16"
Product Details
The 1/16 inch PFA tubing offers reliable performance in environments exposed to aggressive chemicals, ultra-pure liquids, and elevated temperatures. Compared with many conventional plastic tubes, PFA maintains its mechanical properties over a wider temperature range and provides superior resistance to acids, alkalis, solvents, and oxidizing agents.
Its transparent construction allows operators to monitor fluid flow easily, while the non-stick inner surface helps minimize residue buildup and simplifies cleaning. Precision extrusion technology ensures consistent dimensions, making the tubing suitable for applications requiring accurate flow control and dependable sealing performance.
Whether used in chemical processing equipment, semiconductor manufacturing, laboratory instruments, or high-purity fluid delivery systems, our PFA tubing provides dependable performance under continuous operation.
Material
Our Chemical PFA Tubing 1/16" is produced from 100% virgin Perfluoroalkoxy (PFA) resin, a premium fluoropolymer known for its outstanding purity and durability.
PFA combines the chemical resistance of PTFE with improved flexibility and melt-processability, allowing for precision extrusion and excellent dimensional consistency. The material withstands prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals, high temperatures, UV radiation, and moisture without degrading.
Its smooth, non-porous surface reduces particle adhesion and supports clean fluid transfer, making it suitable for industries requiring strict contamination control. FDA-compliant grades are available for food, pharmaceutical, and medical-related applications upon request.

When to Choose Which
PTFE
Best for maximum chemical resistance, highest temperatures, and non-stick surfaces, where complex shapes are not required (e.g., gasket seals, chemical linings, PTFE tape).
FEP
Best for applications requiring transparency, flexibility, and easy heat-sealing, such as cable insulation, lab tubing, and solar collectors.
PFA
Ideal for high-purity applications, semiconductor manufacturing, and complex, molded parts requiring high chemical/temperature resistance.
