XIFLON PVDF TUBES are semi-finished products manufactured from high-performance polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) homopolymer resin, sourced from carefully selected and trusted suppliers including XIFLON fluoropolymer resin.
Excellent resistance to acids, bases, and solvents; stable in harsh chemical environments.
Service temperature from −40 °C to +120 °C; melting point 170±10 °C ensures reliability.
Tensile strength ≥ 35 MPa, elongation ≥ 10 %, and hardness ≥ 70 Shore D for durability.
High dielectric performance with smooth, inclusion-free, contamination-free surfaces.
Our PVDF tubes are extruded from high-purity PVDF homopolymer resin under strict quality control.
This ensures smooth, contaminant-free surfaces, stable round dimensions, and consistent chemical, thermal, and electrical performance across fluid-handling and insulation applications.
Accurate OD/ID and wall thickness with tight tolerances and reliable machinability.
Smooth, clean tube surfaces free from inclusions or metal particles.
Tensile ≥ 35 MPa, elongation ≥ 10 %, hardness ≥ 70 Shore D ensure durability.
Validated to ASTM methods with traceable test data for consistent performance.
