Biopharmaceutical Tubing

C-Flex® | TPE Braided Biopharm Tubing

C-Flex® Braided is produced using the C-Flex® 082 translucent ADCF (Animal Derived Component Free) material formulation, a TPE material commonly approved for use in many biopharmaceutical applications. Reinforcement is provided by a polyester fiber that provides increased pressure rating and improved bend radius. It is compatible with steam sterilization and gamma-irradiation. C-Flex® Braided tubing is part of a family of TPE tubing offering the widest range of formulations and sizes in the industry including C-Flex® 082 and 374 translucent tubing for fluid flow visibility, and C-Flex® 072 opaque for peristaltic pump applications and transfer of light sensitive fluids.
