Description
Nalgene™ phthalate-free PVC tubing is autoclave-ready, transparent laboratory hose manufactured from high-quality resins and orthophthalate-free plasticisers for elevated purity demands. This size offers a 4,8 mm inner diameter, 7,9 mm outer diameter and 1,6 mm wall thickness on a single 75 m roll, making it practical for medium-flow transfer, instrument feed lines and general lab fluid handling. Compliance covers FDA CFR21 food-packaging requirements, USP Class VI, cytotoxicity, REACH, latex-free status, RoHS and California Proposition 65. Flexibility is defined by a bend radius of four times the outer diameter, while hardness is Durometer 60 (A). Rated maximum pressure is 36 psig at 23 °C and 18 psig at 51 °C, with very low vacuum capability and a maximum operating temperature of 71 °C. Sterilisation may be performed by autoclave, gas or chemical methods. Offered as one continuous 250 ft (75 m) piece from manufacturer Thermo Scientific, the tubing supports clean, phthalate-free PVC connections across research, quality-control and process laboratories.
This article is part of PVC, PTFE & other tubing, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Nalgene™ Non-Phthalate PVC Tubing
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Non-Phthalate PVC Tubing is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics for laboratory use. It sits in PVC, PTFE & other tubing, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
PVC is the flexible everyday tube for water and mild aqueous liquids. PTFE is the stiff, almost inert tube for solvents. Other polymers sit between them. The bore, the wall and the chemical resistance are the specification, and the tube is cut to length.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
