Tygon® Pressure Tubing

Tygon® Pressure Tubing  - Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. Pressure Tubing can be used to transport many types of fluids in applications ranging from those regulated by FDA guidelines to industrial and laboratory applications involving virtually all non-solvent based chemicals.
Reinforced to provide increased pressure capability, Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. tubing is the most flexible reinforced tubing.

 

Pressure Formulation B-44-4X I.B.

Unique Flexibility Permits Use Where Other Reinforced Tubings Kink and Collapse

Features/Benefits

  • Handles Four Times the Pressure of Non-Reinforced Tubing
  • Smooth, Non-Porous Bore Resists Particle Entrapment
  • Clear Wall Enables Visualization of Fluid Flow
  • Connects Easily to ReSeal® Sanitary Fittings
  • Meets FDA, 3-A and NSF Criteria

Typical Applications

  • Cosmetic Production
  • Food and Dairy Processing
  • Beverage Dispensing
  • Pharmaceutical Filling
  • Water Purification Systems
  • Printing Equipment
  • Coolant Lines
  • Chemical Transfer
  • Instrumentation and Air Supply

Versatility Provides the Solution to Many Applications
Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. Pressure Tubing can be used to transport many types of fluids in applications ranging from those regulated by FDA guidelines to industrial and laboratory applications involving virtually all non-solvent based chemicals.

Flexibility to Deal with the “Twists and Turns”
Lightweight and easy to handle, Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. Pressure Tubing goes into service quickly. It readily curves around corners and obstructions, requiring a minimum of couplings and fittings. Its flexibility can save up to one-third the footage and much of the labor required to install rigid stainless steel, glass tubing or piping.

Reduces the Risk of Bacterial Contamination
Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. tubing’s smooth non-porous inner bore resists particle entrapment and resultant bacterial growth. Its excellent non-wetting properties facilitate complete drainage and increase the overall effectiveness of cleaning, making it the ideal choice in food, beverage, dairy, and other bacterial sensitive applications. Virtually taste and odor free Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. Pressure Tubing fully complies with FDA 175.300 criteria and the 3-A Sanitary Standards for food contact applications as well as being listed under the NSF Standard 51. Custom antimicrobial version available upon request.

Ideal for Use with ReSeal® Reusable Sanitary Fittings
By combining Tygon® B-44-4X I.B. tubing with ReSeal® Reusable Fittings, complete assemblies can be constructed, providing a contamination free environment that maintains the purity of fluids being transferred. ReSeal® assemblies are easy to install and can increase manufacturing efficiency by providing a fluid path that is repeatedly sterilizable using many conventional clean-in-place methods.
