Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tubing safe for food and beverage contact?
Yes. This tubing carries FDA compliant, USP Class VI, and USDA ratings, making it appropriate for food, beverage, and pharmaceutical fluid contact applications.
What fittings work with this tubing?
Standard 3/4" barbed fittings and compression fittings are compatible. Use appropriate clamps for secure connections under flow.
What is the working pressure?
Not confirmed for this specific VWR part number. Generic 3/4" clear PVC tubing of this wall thickness typically handles low-pressure service - verify your application's pressure requirements before installation.
What chemicals is this tubing incompatible with?
Not suitable for concentrated solvents (acetone, THF), concentrated acids, oils, or continuous steam. Verify chemical compatibility for your specific fluid before use.
Is a manual or documentation included?
Not included.
