NITRA tubing is made from the highest quality, 100% virgin raw materials available and has a hardness specification of Shore A 98. The ether-based tubing provides excellent hydrolosis, oil and cold resistance. Strong and flexible, NITRA UV stabilized PUR tubing is excellent for outdoor use such as landscaping, marine use, greenhouses and outdoor pneumatic applications. This tubing provides protection against UV rays of the sun and ultraviolet lights used in curing processes.
UV stabilized tubing is available in inch (5/32” to ½”) and metric sizes (4mm to 12mm) in 100-foot and 500-foot rolls starting at $12. NITRA PTFE tubing has a hardness specification of Shore D 55 and is an excellent choice for many high heat applications. Its exceptional resistance to degradation of mechanical properties under severe conditions makes this tubing ideal for applications such as processing wash down equipment and higher pressure systems using compression fittings.
