Tygon® Tubing & Accessories, Thermoplastic Elastomer Flexible Tubing

Tygon® A-60-F

Long-Life, Temperature-Resistant Food & Beverage Tubing

Tygon® A-60-F tubing from Saint-Gobain is specially designed for peristaltic pumps used in dispensing equipment. It is extremely flexible, resists kinks, retains its shape, and can be easily installed, making it the best choice for demanding food and beverage pumping applications.

This high-performance tubing can withstand extreme temperatures from -75°F to 275°F without cracking or deteriorating, and is robust enough for clean-in-place and steam-in-place cleaning and sterilization systems. Tygon A-60-F is compatible with virtually all commercial cleaners and sanitizers, and can be repeatedly autoclaved for up to five cycles without affecting its overall service life.
