Coiltef® Fluoropolymer Tubing
Coiltef is manufactured through a fabrication process which heat sets the coils. The coils should remain stable up to 200°F. At higher temperatures the coils will begin to relax and lose their set. If the application involves elevated temperatures, in-house testing is recommended. Coiltef may be steam or chemically sterilized in-line with any industrial cleaner, solvent or sterilizing method. Care should be taken with steam sterilization of Coiltef to prevent coil relaxation. Testing is recommended.

NOTE: Values listed are typical for the material used in manufacture, except where noted, and are meant only as a guide to aid in design. Field testing should be performed to find the actual values for your application.
†Temperatures are for standard extruded (non-convoluted) tubing.
Cut Pieces – When tubing comes in, for example, 100 foot coils, and you need it in 10’ sections, tubing can be cut. Request a quote.
Size – Tubing is stocked in common I.D. and O.D. sizes, but this product can be custom extruded in other sizes. Let’s talk about what you need. Minimum quantities apply.
Color – Have your tubing colored to match equipment, company colors, or identify line (hot or cold, indoor or outdoor, chemicals, etc..).
Opaque and transparent colors may be accommodated. Minimum quantities apply.
All custom products are subject to minimum order quantities and lead times. For other custom options, please contact us.

^Dimensions do not include tails
Add length suffix to part number when ordering. Example: 12 inches of 1/16” I.D. x 3/16” O.D. tubing is part number 360 0072-12.
The retracted length is approximately 1/4 of the maximum expanded length excluding tails. Wall thickness for all standard sizes is 1/16. Tail length (C) is 6” for all listed sizes.
BOD is the critical dimension for fittings application.
