Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing

Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing, Formulation 2001 is uniquely engineered to provide flexibility, chemical resistance and extended pump life in a clear, plasticizer/oil free tubing product.
Tygon® 2001 Plasticizer Free Tubing resists chemical
attack and is a clear, flexible alternative to PVC.


Biopharmaceutical Formulation 2001

Provides the highest degree of chemical resistance in a clear, flexible tubing.

Features/Benefits

  • Superior flex life in peristaltic pumps 
  • Chemically resistant to a wide range of fluids
  • Temperature resistant from -108ºF to 135ºF
  • Clear for easy visual flow monitoring
  • Meets FDA criteria for food contact
  • Plasticizer and oil-free

Typical Applications

  • Peristaltic Pump Applications
  • Soap and Detergent Dispensing
  • Water Purification Lines
  • Food Contact Applications
  • Chemical Transfer

Superior Performance in a Broad Range of Applications
Tygon® Plasticizer Free Tubing, Formulation 2001 is uniquely engineered to provide flexibility, chemical resistance and extended pump life in a clear, plasticizer/oil free tubing product. It is ideal for a broad range of demanding applications including peristaltic pump systems, soap and detergent dispensing, ink transfer, water purification lines, food and beverage, and chemical transfer.

Tygon® 2001 Outperforms PVC in Chemical Resistance
Tygon® 2001 is resistant to a wide range of fluids that typically destroy PVC products. Its chemical resistance allows it to be used in applications with aggressive chemicals like polar solvents, benefiting the user with less downtime and tubing changes. Tygon® 2001 will yield a longer service life and will not degrade over time like other flexible tubing products. (See Relative Chemical Resistance Chart)

Additional Product Features
Upon incineration, many tubing products release hazardous by-products like hydrogen chloride gas when incinerated, but Tygon® 2001 does not release any hazardous materials when properly incinerated. Since it contains no plasticizers or oils, Tygon® 2001 will not yield any taste, which makes it an ideal choice for food and beverage applications with strict taste requirements.
