Frequently Asked Questions
Polypropylene tubes are made from a semi-rigid plastic material that is known for its superior strength and chemical resistance capabilities. It has a working temperature range of -20°C to +90°C and is often used in the vehicle and industrial manufacturing industries.
Polyethylene tubes are made from a softer material than polypropylene and are not as strong or resistant to chemical attack. It has a lower working temperature range of -35°C to +55°C and is often used for water pipes, food packaging, and other domestic applications or specific commercial applications.
Yes, polypropylene tubes are a popular choice for laboratory applications due to their temperature resistance and chemical resistance properties. They can also be used as conduits for gases and liquids in many industries, making them a versatile option.
