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.
