Thermoplastic Elastomer (TPE) is a soft and flexible polymer with excellent physical properties, making it a good alternative for many latex or silicone tubing applications. FDA, NSF and USP Class VI material compounds are available for medical and food/beverage applications.
TPE Performance Characteristics:
Cleanliness
Ease of sterilization
Excellent clarity
Dimensional stability
Chemical inertness
Tighter tolerances
Good vapor and gas transmission properties
Flexible
Colors:
Virtually any color can be matched (including flourescent) to meet customer specifications
Sizes:
Can manufacture from 1/16" (.063) I.D. with O.D.'s up to 1" with a variety of wall thicknesses
Multi-lumen and solid cord available
Packaging:
Custom coils or cut lengths per customer specifications
