FEP 1.6:1 Heat Shrink Tubing

Applied Medical Tubing welcomes the opportunity to serve your organization. Our USP Class VI certified polymers makes for easy integration into regulatory requirements. 

FEP tubing is often referred to as Teflon Tubing. Teflon tubing is three different polymer materials - they are FEP, PTFE, and PFA.

FEP tubing is used in applications that require more clarity, flexibility, or a lower heat shrinkable temperature. Applications range from medical devices, electronics, and environmental monitoring equipment.

 

Here are some advantages and benefits of FEP tubing

• Lower heat shrink temperature than PTFE

• More flexible than PTFE

• More clarity than PTFE

• Better (lubricity) coefficient of friction than PFA 

• Complies with: AMS-DTL-23053/11

FEP tubing products that are available:

• Custom FEP Tubing
