• - Holds full vacuum at room temperature
  
• Will not crack and age like rubber tubing

Extra heavy walls will withstand full vacuum of 29.9" (759 mm) of mercury at 73°F (23°C) and up to 27" (686 mm) of mercury at 140°F (60°C.) Resists most inorganic chemicals. Nonaging and, unlike rubber tubing, it is highly resistant to cracking.

Application

Use in corrosive atmospheres. Clarity allows monitoring for possible backups which could result in equipment damage. Will not swell closed if vacuum pump oil should back up into it. Low vapor pressure (low outgassing) makes it suitable for vacuum applications down to 3 x 10-2 mm Hg at 165°F. Ideal for analytical testing of gases or vapors. Well suited for use in making manometers.
