contact surface.
Versatile Norprene® Tubing Provides
Long Life for Everyday Use
Norprene® Pressure Tubing consistently outperforms general purpose rubber
tubing in a wide variety of applications. It has excellent resistance to ozone
and UV light, with little to no sign of deterioration in laboratory testing to
the equivalent of 10 years outdoor exposure. Norprene® Pressure Tubing is
extremely abrasion resistant and bends easily to simplify custom component
assembly.

Typical Applications
Simplifies Cleaning and Sterilization
Norprene® Pressure Tubing is ideal for use in clean-in-place and steamin-place cleaning and sterilization systems. It is compatible with virtually
all commercial cleaners and sanitizers and can be repeatedly autoclaved
for up to five cycle times without affecting its overall service life.
Norprene® Pressure Tubing fully complies with FDA 21 CFR, 177.2600
criteria and 3-A Sanitary Standards.
Excellent Chemical Resistance
Norprene® Pressure Tubing provides superior resistance to many corrosive
fluids when compared to general purpose rubber tubings. Norprene® Pressure
Tubing has excellent acid and alkali resistance and is compatible with
numerous oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite
and ozone. It also shows good resistance to the animal and vegetable oils
frequently found in food contact applications. Refer to the comprehensive
