Description
Biocompatible,
chemically inert to
most commonly-
used solvents, PLS
tubingoffersa
PEEK inner layer
which servesas
thefluidpathway,
jacketedby
stainless steel.
• Ideal forbio-
inertUHPLC
applications
•Canbebent into
various shapes
without affecting
performance
Seamless, pre-cut
316 stainless steel
tubingmeets
theexacting
requirementsof
today’sanalyses.
Thorough
preparation
guarantees that
the tubing is truly
ready-to-use,with
flat-burr-freeends
andacleanfinish.
•Wide selection
ofoutsideand
insidediameters
and lengths
•Pre-cut toensure
burr-free, flat
connections
•Many sizes

Biocompatible,
chemically inert to
most commonly
used solvents, PEEK
tubing isflexible,
offersavery smooth
internal surface, and
canbeeasilycut to
desired lengths.
•Great alternative
for stainless
steel tubing in
highpressure
applications
•Many sizes
available incolor

identify ID
All thebenefits
of larger sized
PEEK tubing,
while serving
asanexcellent
alternative tomore
traditional fused
silicaand stainless
steel capillary
tubing.Capillary
PEEK tubing is
available inawide
rangeofmicroand
nano-scale inner
diameters.
•Available in
commoncapillary
tubing sizeswith
tight tolerances
onODand ID
•Tubing sleeves
available for
capillary tubing
connections
Becauseof the
tight tolerances
of fused silica’s
innerdiameters,
this tubing isused
formicro-scale
analyses suchas
microandnano-
HPLCandcapillary
electrophoresis.
•Most commonly

PEEKsil is
mechanically strong
andhas ideal
characteristics for
