The currently listed reference OD is 1.6 mm, with 0.5, 0.8 or 1.0 mm ID. For other sizes, provide a drawing so an engineer can review tubing availability and end connections.
PFA Ferrule Tubing Assembly
FOREACH PFA ferrule tubing assemblies combine PFA tubing, matching fittings and ferrules. The compressed ferrule connects the instrument port without pre-flanging the tube end. They can connect reagent, cleaning-fluid and internal fluid paths in in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) and automated analytical instruments. Reference tubing OD is 1.6 mm, with IDs of 0.5, 0.8 or 1.0 mm. Specify length and both end connections in the drawing.
Standard flat-bottom port threads include M6×1 and 1/4-28 UNF. Select fitting materials and PP or ETFE ferrules for the model, tube size and operating conditions, confirming compatibility among tubing, ferrule and port. Define A/B fitting structures, threads and materials separately and specify protective sleeves, stop tubes, identification or coils as needed. Samples and batch assembly are supported. Confirm working pressure and temperature for the specific dimensions, ports and complete assembly.
FOREACH holds ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 quality management system certifications.
