A Flexible Alternative to Complex Laboratory
Set-ups
Extremely flexible,
Tygon® Ultra-Soft Tubing is the solution to
applications requiring maximum drapeability and kink
resistance. Even under laboratory set-ups with
abrupt radius curves and multiple directional
changes, Tygon® Ultra-Soft Tubing resists twisting
and collapse - common problems when using other
tubing products. Tygon® Ultra-Soft Tubing stays
flexible at temperatures as low as -100˚F (-73˚C).
Its smooth bore facilitates easy cleaning and helps
prevent possible buildup.
Tygon® Ultra-Soft Tubing provides
unmatched flexibility and drapeability -
characteristics beneficial to numerous
laboratory set-ups.
The Preferred Tubing in Low-Torque
Peristaltic Pumps
The extremely low
durometer of Tygon® Ultra-Soft Tubing provides
minimal resistance to compression. This feature is
ideal when using low-torque or battery-driven
peristaltic pumps and provides an excellent
alternative to silicone tubing where corrosive
chemicals are used.
Tygon® Ultra-Soft
Tubing will typically outlast silicone tubing in
peristaltic pump applications by a margin of 2 to 1.
