GORE™ High Resilience Tubing Style 500
GORE™ High Resilience Tubing Style 500 delivers the dependable performance you need to handle aggressive media in challenging chemical processes. These tubes ensure a consistent flow rate over time and virtually eliminate spallation. Their chemical resistance and durability enable them to last longer than other types of tubing, even in the most demanding environments.
Made of a unique composite of fluoroelastomer and expanded PTFE, the strong and flexible GORE™ High-Resilience Tubing Style 500 will not compress, crease or distort over time, even when pumping the most aggressive chemicals. This provides a consistent flow rate, so you can precisely control the composition of media over a longer period of time than with other types of tubing.
