TOUGHEST PROBLEMS ON
Laboratory Constructions Special Apparatus Instruments PF Teflon furnishes near-miraculous solu tions to difficult application problems because of its unique chemical, elec trical and mechanical advantages. Wherever tubing has a critical job to perform in electrical, electronic, chem ical, food, laboratory, mechanical and other applications, PF Instrument Tubing is the best answer because it: Hat an extreme service tempera ture range from —320° to 500°F. Has excellent dielectric properties and zero moisture absorption Resists almost all chemicals and solvents Is easy to clean or sterilize Is translucent, tough and flexible Will not contaminate a stream PF extrudes this tubing in all popular sizes from .012" to .330" I.D., thin and standard wall, in a full range of colors. The combination of Teflon's outstanding properties and PF's outstanding engi neering and manufacturing techniques can help solve your difficult application problems.
