Description
Tygon® hose F-4040-A is a flexible laboratory tubing grade supplied in a continuous 15 m length with an inner diameter of 3,2 mm and an outer diameter of 6,4 mm. The defined wall geometry supports general liquid-handling duties where a small-bore line is required for reagent transfer, instrument connections, or bench-top fluid routing. Unit quantity is 15 m and the stated weight is 0,450 kg, giving a practical coil size for stock rooms and shared laboratory stores. The F-4040-A designation within the Tygon® family identifies this specific dimensional variant so that fittings, barbs, and connectors can be matched consistently across installations. Manufactured by Saint-Gobain, the hose is positioned for general laboratory hose applications rather than specialised high-purity or pressure-critical duties beyond the data provided. Clear inner and outer diameters help technicians select compatible couplings and minimise leak points at joints. The 15 m pack length reduces frequent reordering for routine setups while remaining manageable on the bench. Use the stated dimensions and length when specifying spare tubing for liquid-handling assemblies and general labware fluid paths.
This article is part of PVC, PTFE & other tubing, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Tygon®-hoses F-4040-A, Ø inner 3,2 mm, Ø outer 6,4 mm, 15 m
What is this article?
Tygon®-hoses F-4040-A, Ø inner 3,2 mm, Ø outer 6,4 mm, 15 m is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Saint-Gobain 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.
