Description
Nalgene™ 280 polyurethane tubing, 1/4 inner diameter is flexible ester-based laboratory tubing for high-purity fluid transfer. The polyurethane construction offers strong resistance to abrasion and flex fatigue together with solid low-temperature performance, supporting reliable routing of liquids in research and process setups. Inner diameter is 6,4 mm (1/4 in) and outer diameter is 9,5 mm (3/8 in), with wall thickness 1,6 mm (1/16 in). Overall length is 15,24 m (50 ft) on a single roll, with hardness Durometer 85(A) and a bend radius of six times the outer diameter for manageable installation. Maximum working pressure is 76 psig at 23 °C and 38 psig at 52 °C; maximum operating temperature is 85 °C. The tubing is not autoclavable. Gross weight is 1,050 kg per roll. This Nalgene line from Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics suits flexible connections where durability, purity-focused handling and defined metric dimensions are required in everyday laboratory fluid systems.
This article is part of PVC, PTFE & other tubing, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Nalgene™ 280 Polyurethane Tubing
What is this article?
Nalgene™ 280 Polyurethane 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.
