Description
Tygon® hose F-4040-A is laboratory tubing offered as a 15 m length with an inner diameter of 4,8 mm and an outer diameter of 8,0 mm. This intermediate bore suits general liquid-handling tasks such as connecting pumps, reservoirs, and bench instruments where moderate flow is needed without moving to large-diameter lines. The pack is specified as 15 m with a weight of 0,600 kg, providing a workable coil for departmental stores and multi-station laboratories. Retaining the F-4040-A type code within the Tygon® range ensures dimensional continuity when replacing existing runs or standardising fittings across a work group. The hose comes from manufacturer Saint-Gobain and is intended for general laboratory hose use as reflected in the product classification. Accurate inner and outer diameters support correct selection of barbed fittings, clamps, and adapters, helping maintain secure joints during routine fluid transfer. The 15 m unit length balances convenience for installation work with economical stocking. Specify this size when protocols or equipment layouts call for 4,8 mm inner / 8,0 mm outer Tygon® F-4040-A tubing in standard labware liquid-handling setups.
This article is part of PVC, PTFE & other tubing, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Tygon®-hoses F-4040-A, Ø inner 4,8 mm, Ø outer 8,0 mm, 15 m
What is this article?
Tygon®-hoses F-4040-A, Ø inner 4,8 mm, Ø outer 8,0 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.
