Request Information
  • Made from FEP fluoropolymer tubing
  • Corrugations allow a nearly zero bend radius - easily flexed
  • Can be extended or compressed without affecting the tube's I.D.
  • Made without plasticizers which can leach into critical streams
  • Made from FDA compliant materials
  • Has all the chemical and electrical properties of straight-walled FEP tubing
  • May be over braided with Kevlar® for higher pressures (Over braiding with Kevlar will permit a minimum increase of six times the listed pressures. Kevlar® over braiding is available for sizes up to 7/8" I.D. - call for details.)

Optimal flow is achieved and turbulence minimized by passing fluids through Corrtef™ in the direction of the corrugation angles (as illustrated).

Corrtef™ is heat sealable, and the cuffs (straight ends) are made to accept standard barbed fittings. The end may be flared or expanded to permit shrink-tight connections.

Corrtef™ is manufactured in an industrial atmosphere and should be properly sterilized for clean-flow applications. For optimal cleaning of Corrtef™, the tube should be stretched to its maximum length and held vertically (direction of flow: down). Due to the annular corrugations, it may not be possible to remove all traces of particulate from Corrtef™, even under optimal cleaning conditions.

Specify 'E' dimension at order time. Maximum overall available length: 12 ft. (including cuffs). The minimum overall length for Corrtef with a cuff at each end is 6"; shorter overall lengths are possible when only one cuff is needed.

All pressures are calculated and not based on actual testing.
  • 1 Critical dimension for fittings application.
  • 2 Workable I.D. length of the cuff (straight ends). All lengths supplied with 'B' dimension cuffs.
