Product Detail

Precision Small-Bore PTFE Tubing for Fluid Handling, Instrumentation and Industrial Applications

Yozonetech PTFE Capillary Tube is a precision small-bore tubing solution manufactured from high-performance PTFE. Designed for applications where compact dimensions, low friction, chemical resistance, electrical insulation, and dimensional consistency are important, PTFE capillary tubing provides a reliable fluid or cable pathway in demanding environments.

Compared with conventional PTFE tubing, capillary tubing is designed around smaller internal diameters and more precise dimensional requirements. It is widely used in analytical instruments, laboratory equipment, chemical dosing systems, pneumatic control, medical equipment, semiconductor equipment, electrical applications, and other systems requiring small-diameter tubing.

Yozonetech manufactures PTFE capillary tubing in a wide range of AWG-based sizes, with typical internal diameters from approximately 0.25 mm to 8.69 mm. Different S-Type, T-Type, and L-Type outside diameters are available for many sizes, allowing engineers to select the appropriate wall configuration according to their application.

Custom ID, OD, wall thickness, length, packaging, and other specifications can also be discussed according to project requirements.

Note: Dimensions represent typical manufacturing sizes. Actual tolerances and available configurations should be confirmed according to the selected specification, application, and production requirements.

* The original specification supplied lists 6.22 mm for AWG 5 L-Type OD. Please confirm this value with the production/engineering team before final publication.

S-Type, T-Type and L-Type Configurations

Different outside-diameter configurations allow PTFE capillary tubing to be adapted to different application requirements. A smaller outside diameter can help reduce overall installation space, while a larger wall configuration can provide additional mechanical protection and dimensional stability.

When selecting a capillary tube, engineers should consider:

Required internal diameter
Required outside diameter
Available installation space
Required wall thickness
Fluid volume and flow requirements
Pressure conditions
Temperature
Chemical exposure
Electrical insulation requirements
Bending and routing conditions

For applications where dimensional tolerances are critical, customers are encouraged to provide drawings or detailed specifications so Yozonetech can recommend the most suitable tubing configuration.

Technical Characteristics of PTFE Capillary Tubing

Chemical Resistance

PTFE is one of the most chemically resistant engineering polymers available. PTFE capillary tubing can be used with many aggressive chemicals, solvents, corrosive fluids, and process media. This makes it particularly useful for laboratory instruments, chemical processing, analytical systems, and semiconductor-related equipment. Actual compatibility should always be evaluated against the specific chemical, concentration, temperature, pressure, and exposure time.

Temperature Resistance

PTFE provides excellent thermal stability and is suitable for high-temperature applications compared with many conventional flexible tubing materials. For applications involving continuous high-temperature exposure, thermal cycling, pressure, or mechanical loading, Yozonetech can evaluate the operating conditions and recommend an appropriate specification.

Low Friction

The smooth PTFE surface and naturally low friction characteristics make the tubing suitable for small-volume fluid transfer, wire insertion, cable protection, probe protection, and moving components.

Electrical Insulation

PTFE has excellent electrical insulating properties and can be used to protect wires, conductors, sensors, and other electrical components in demanding environments.

Typical Applications

Analytical Instruments

PTFE capillary tubing is suitable for analytical and laboratory instruments where small internal diameters, chemical resistance, and clean fluid pathways are required. Typical uses include analytical fluid lines, sampling systems, instrument connections, chemical reagent delivery, and laboratory equipment.

Chemical Dosing and Fluid Handling

The small bore allows controlled transport of relatively small quantities of liquids or gases. Typical applications include chemical dosing, reagent delivery, sampling, and small-volume fluid transfer.

Semiconductor Equipment

PTFE capillary tubing can be used in selected semiconductor and electronics manufacturing equipment where chemical resistance, thermal stability, and reliable tubing dimensions are required. For high-purity applications, material grade, cleanliness, packaging, and production environment should be specified according to process requirements.

Medical and Laboratory Equipment

Small-diameter PTFE tubing can be used in equipment requiring chemical resistance, low friction, and stable dimensional performance. The appropriate grade and regulatory requirements should be confirmed according to the intended medical application.

Pneumatic and Instrumentation Systems

Suitable for compact pneumatic and instrumentation systems where small tubing dimensions and low friction are beneficial.

Wire and Sensor Protection

Can be used as an insulating or protective sleeve for wires, sensor elements, thermocouples, and other small components.

How to Select the Right PTFE Capillary Tube

1. Select the Required ID

Determine the required internal diameter according to the fluid, wire, probe, or component that will pass through the tube. For fluid applications, consider the desired flow rate and pressure drop.

2. Select the OD

After determining the ID, select the outside diameter according to available installation space and required wall thickness.

3. Consider Tolerance

If the tube is used in precision instruments, metering systems, connectors, or assemblies with tight dimensional requirements, specify the required ID and OD tolerances.

4. Consider Temperature

The actual operating temperature should include continuous operating temperature, short-term temperature peaks, thermal cycling, and contact with heated components.

5. Check Chemical Compatibility

PTFE has excellent chemical resistance, but compatibility should still be evaluated against the actual chemical and operating conditions.

6. Consider Length and Packaging

Yozonetech supplies different standard package lengths according to size and can discuss customized cut lengths or packaging requirements for OEM projects.

Custom PTFE Capillary Tube Manufacturing

Standard sizes cover many common applications, but not every engineering system uses a standard dimension. Yozonetech can support customized PTFE capillary tubing according to customer drawings, samples, or specifications.

Custom ID
Custom OD
Custom wall thickness
Custom tolerance
Custom length
Special packaging
Material requirements
OEM specifications

For a quotation, customers can provide the required ID, OD, length, application, operating temperature, media, pressure, and estimated annual quantity. Providing a drawing or existing sample is recommended when dimensional compatibility is critical.

Quality Control

For precision small-bore tubing, dimensional consistency is especially important because even a small variation in ID or OD can influence assembly, fluid flow, or component compatibility.

Raw material control
Extrusion process control
Dimensional inspection
ID and OD verification
Visual inspection
Length control
Batch consistency
Packaging protection

For OEM and customized orders, inspection requirements can be discussed before production.
