Specially-formulatedelastomer
for usewith strong acidic and
basic solutions
XX
Very lowgas permeability
Fluran tubing has been specially
formulated for use inapplications
where strong acidic solutions or
strongbasicsolutionsarebeingused.
Thematerial’s very low gas per-
meability alsomakes this the choicematerial for applicationswhere
fluidscanbe transferredwithoutbeingcontaminatedbyatmospheric
gases. Additionally, the lowgaspermeability and relative strengthof
thismaterialmake itamaterialofchoice invacuumbasedapplications.

Excellent option for
industrial applications
Norprene tubing is an excellent
alternative to traditional rubber
tubing in industrial applications
wheregood chemical resistance
is pairedwith adesire for longer
service life.
This tubingmaterial offers additional benefits, including low gas
permeabilityandbroad temperature rangecompatibility.Combined,
thismaterial’s features helpmake this tubing the tubingof choice in
manyapplications.
