What is a PFA tube / Perfluoroalkoxy?

PFA tubing (Perfluoroalkoxy tubing) is made from a fluoropolymer known for its exceptional chemical stability and heat resistance. While similar to PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), PFA offers better processability, making it easier to mold and shape into smaller sizes. As a result, PFA tubing is widely used in industries such as medical, chemical, and semiconductor manufacturing. PFA tubing can resist corrosion from strong acids and alkalis, and it can operate at high temperatures. Additionally, its transparency allows for easy monitoring of fluid flow, making it ideal for systems where fluid flow observation is crucial. PFA tubing also has a low coefficient of friction, ensuring smooth fluid flow in various applications.

Application of PFA tube / Perfluoroalkoxy

１．Medical devices: Used for monitoring the flow of blood or pharmaceuticals.
２．Chemical industry: Used in equipment that handles strong acids or alkalis.
３．Semiconductor manufacturing: Ideal for semiconductor production systems due to its high-temperature resistance.
