ALTAFLUOR® 450 HP PFA

1 of 9 products in this brand
ALTAFLUOR® 450 HP PFA (high purity perfluoroalkoxy) is commonly chosen for applications involving extreme chemical resistance combined with high purity requirements. Although HP PFA is available in a variety of resin grades, the tubing is made from a high molecular weight, high purity resin that provides excellent chemical resistance, highest purity levels (extractable data available upon request) and smooth surface finish. ALTAFLUOR 450 SERIES HP PFA does not impart taste or odor and is ideal for use with flare or conventional fittings.

The above information is based on tests performed at 73° F and can vary in individual applications based on parameters such as temperature, chemical concentration, pressure, etc. Please consult factory for details. For an estimate on burst pressure at ambient temperature we consider a 3:1 ratio when exposure temperature is 73° F. However Altaflo does not recommend exceeding the suggested Working Pressure listed. Additional sizes up to 2” are available. Available in natural color only.
