PTFE Tube WAT026810 – Durability and Compatibility for your Laboratory Applications
The WAT026810 model from Waters is a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) tube designed to meet fluid transfer needs in the most demanding analytical environments. With a length of 10 feet ( 3 metres), this tube offers excellent manoeuvrability for internal fluid circuit configurations, while maintaining the technical qualities required for constant use in liquid chromatography systems or other applications requiring high chemical resistance.
The outer diameter of the tube is 0.250 inches (6.3 mm), while its inner diameter is 0.190 inches (4.8 mm). This ratio between the internal and external dimensions ensures smooth flow for large volumes while maintaining a solid structure. This minimises pressure loss, optimises flow rate and reduces the risk of deformation or clogging.
The PTFE material used for this tube is recognised for its inert properties, thermal resistance and compatibility with a wide range of organic solvents and acidic or basic reagents. It is a reliable choice for preventing any interaction between the tube walls and the substances being transported. This maintains sample integrity and preserves the accuracy of results, even during sensitive analyses.
The WAT026810 tube is compatible with standard Waters equipment fittings, ensuring seamless integration into existing systems. This compatibility is essential for ensuring tight connections, preventing leaks and facilitating maintenance without the need to modify infrastructure.
Used in research laboratories, pharmaceutical, food and environmental environments, this tube is a reliable solution for all applications requiring a clean, stable and durable transfer channel. It ensures safe handling while optimising analytical performance over the long term.
