Tygon® A-60-F IB

Flexible, Temperature & Pressure-Resistant Food & Beverage Tubing

Tygon® A-60-F IB tubing from Saint-Gobain can withstand elevated pressure and extreme temperatures from -75°F to 275°F without cracking or deteriorating, making it ideal for both clean-in-place and steam-in-place sterilization and cleaning systems. It is resistant to many harsh animal and vegetable oils, as well as acids and alkali, and is compatible with numerous oxidizing agents such as peroxide, hypochlorite, and ozone. This high-performance, reinforced tubing can be repeatedly autoclaved for up to five cycles without affecting its overall service life.
