overview of polyurethane tubing |
polyurethane tubing - ether 86a & ester 85a (also sold under the brand name superthane®)
flexible polyurethane tubing hose is available in ether and ester, both with optimum abrasion resistance, high tensile strength and low-temperature flexibility. neither contain plasticizers, so migration is not a problem.
ether (86a) is resistant to hydrolysis, fungus and weathering. ester (85a) types give maximum abrasion resistance and good oil, solvent and grease resistance. both grades (ether & ester) meet fda requirements.
for best results, use sleeved compression fittings with all thermoplastic tubing.

features and benefits of polyurethane tubing |
features of flexible polyurethane tubing:
abrasion resistant
high tensile strength
low temperature flexibility
colors: clear
tubes above 2" od are usually molded in short lengths (4 foot or less)
small diameter tubing is extruded in longer coils (50 feet or more).
coils lengths:
100' up to 5/8" x 7/8" x 1/8" wall
50' 3/4" x 1 x 1/8" wall and larger.
cut pieces, special lengths, durometers and colors on a custom basis.
