Features
- Inner layer is made of barrier fluoropolymer.
- Outer layer is made of special polymer with UV-shielding characteristics to block UV rays of long wavelengths and to ensure visibility in inside the tube.
- Hybrid tube structure offers flexibility unparalleled by any other fluoropolymer tube.
- Tube size : 3 to 6 mm in internal diameter
- Tube color : Yellow
Applications
- Tubes used to transport UV-hardened paints and inks
- Applications that require measures to protect the transported fluid from the effects of UV light
