Viton Tubing
Viton tubing, or Viton hose, is made from the world's first fluoroelastomer.
Viton® was developed by DuPont Dow, is a registered trademark of DuPont
Dow Elastomers, and has worldwide ISO 9000 and ISO/TS 16949 registration. Tubing
made from 100 percent virgin Viton® with the DuPont Dow seal is the
highest quality and ensures compliance with OSHA. DuPont Dow has developed
a number of Viton® types which can be broken into general-purpose and
specialty categories. The specialty types offer superior combinations of fluid
resistance and low-temperature functionality.
Viton tubing is made from a versatile, high performance synthetic rubber. Viton
tubing stands out because it possesses higher resilience to petroleum-based
fuels, oils, chemicals, fluids, lubricants, mineral acids, hydro-carbons, extreme
temperatures, environmental exposure and ozone than any other tubing made of
a thermoplastic elastomer. Viton tubing is black in color and is used in appliances,
chemical and solvent transfer, hot lubrication feeds and peristaltic pumps
and as o-rings and seals, fuel and oil lines, cable jacketing and exhaust lines.
