Tygon® R-3603 Vacuum Tubing

Tygon R-3603 Vacuum TubingTygon® Formulation R-3603 Tubing
Tygon® Vacuum Tubing has extra-heavy walls that will withstand a full vacuum at room temperature ( 29.9" [ 759 mm] of mercury at 73° F [ 23° C] ) and up to 27" [ 686 mm] of mercury at 140° F [ 60° C] .
Like standard Tygon® Laboratory Tubing, Tygon® Vacuum Tubing resists most inorganic chemicals and can be used in corrosive atmospheres.
Clarity allows monitoring for possible backups which could result in equipment damage. Tygon® Vacuum Tubing will not swell closed if vacuum pump oil should back up into it.
Low vapor pressure ( low outgassing) makes it suitable for vacuum applications down to 3 x 10-2 mm Hg at 165° F ( 74° C) . Ideal for analytical testing of gases or vapors. Well-suited for use in making manometers.ÿ
