It only takes one compromise to taint the purity of your operation. Parker High Purity PFA tubing is designed to withstand semi-conductor high purity applications where high temperatures, harsh chemicals, and/or corrosive fluid media can cause rubber or plastic tubing to extract compounds into the fluid media or cause out gassing into the surrounding environment. It is odorless, tasteless, non-leaching and absorptive. In addition, with absorption of water less than 0.03%. High Purity PFA tubing ensures that the media passing through the tube does not leach into the fluid media nor into the tubing wall. It is often used as a clean, flexible alternative to steel metallic tubing. Parker only extrudes from high purity resins that ensure the PFA tubing will not crack, degrade or discolor. By selecting Parker’s High Purity PFA tubing, rather than a standard grade, the impurities in the tube are kept to the lowest possible level. H.P. PFA is chemically inert, odorless, non-wetting and non-leaching and is often used in fluid and material handling applications, such as harsh and corrosive chemical transfer.

Like FEP, the low refractive index allows operators to visually inspect for contaminants, flow interruptions and leak detection. In addition, tubing can be reinforced with high performance braiding to handle higher pressures. Braiding facilities are located on the premises.
