Tygothane® Precision Polyurethane Pressure Tubing is
more flexible than many other reinforced urethane
tubings, Tygothane® Pressure Tubing can be used in
the most physically demanding applications, such as
those requiring a tight bend radius. Specially
formulated from tough, ether-based poly resin, Tygothane® tubing is resistant to a range of
chemicals, including oils, greases, solvents and
chemicals.
Because
of its excellent wear properties, Tygothane®
frequently outperforms traditional rubber, plastic
and metal materials when exposed to abrasive
conditions. Tygothane® also is plasticizer-free,
and remains flexible even when cycled through
temperature extremes.
