Ether Polyurethane (TPU-ARET) Tubing
Colors
Key Applications
Polyurethane tubes of the ether type are indicated for a wide and varied range of applications, such as: food and packaging industry, pharmaceutical industry, varied medical and laboratory applications, analytical instrumentation, vacuum equipment and semiconductor production, and can also be used in low pressure pneumatic and hydraulic systems, pneumatic tools, robotics, industrial automation and systems with programmable logic controllers.
Features
The tubes produced in polyurethane ether, are manufactured with thermoplastic ether based polyurethane (TPU-ARET) and have as main characteristics the high resistance to hydrolysis and low proliferation of microbes due to the low formation of micro cracks over time. They have high transparency and good flexibility at low temperatures. They have anti-UV and antioxidant resistance, which increases the durability of the tube in bad weather and, consequently, maintains its properties for a longer period. They are flexible and easy to assemble in the appropriate connections, being produced with high dimensional control.
