FEP Fluoropolymer Tubing

DuPont® FEP Fluoropolymer Tubing

FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) tubing is great for general, low pressure applications and is held to tight tolerances and has low gas permeability.

Much of our FEP Tubing—even the color-tinted options—is translucent, making it possible to watch fluid flow. Black FEP tubing is available for light-sensitive applications (such as enzymatic and chemiluminescent reactions) and entering/exiting flow cells.
