Parker-Hannifin
Parprene tubing (photo) is constructed from a specially formulated thermoplastic elastomer. It is designed to withstand the rigors of peristaltic pump applications. It is extremely flexible, fatigue resistant and abrasion resistant, making it a good alternative to neoprene and rubber tubing, according to the company. It can handle temperatures up to 275°F (135°C), and provides a broader range of chemical compatibility than standard rubber and thermoplastic products, according to the company. Paraprene tubing is available in Series G for general industrial applications, and Series F for food, beverage and dairy applications. — Parker-Hannifin Corp., Paraflex Div., Ravenna, Ohio
