AMETEK Introduces UHP Fluoropolymer Tubing

Wilmington, DE – AMETEK Chemical Products has introduced a new line of high-quality fluoropolymer tubing made from ultrahigh-purity FEP resin. Designated UHP-FEP, the resin is designed primarily for ultrahigh-purity applications requiring very low levels of metal and other ion extractability.

This extrusion grade resin is well suited for tubing. The surface of the tubing is very smooth, offering no sites for contamination buildup. The low extractable levels and chemically inert nature make it ideal for a wide range of chemical transport applications in semiconductor facilities as well as in OEM equipment.

The tubing is available in a range of standard or custom sizes up to 2-inch diameter. AMETEK tubing products can be supplied with special custom packaging and spooling, and shipped to comply with specific customer JIT delivery requirements.

AMETEK also produces heat exchangers utilizing this tubing. With its unique honeycomb structure, the resulting heat exchanger offers excellent chemical and corrosion resistance and is ideal for heating or cooling high purity chemicals.
