Application
Type 1005 coated single line
tubing is ideally suited for instrumentation and process control lines. It is
the original plastic coated metal tubing. Available in 114'; 3/8" and 1/2" 0.D.
sizes with wall thicknesses ranging from .030" to
.035".
Chemical
Resistance
Withstands corrosive
atmospheres found in many plants. The PVC or polyethylene jacket protects
the core tube from chemical attack.
Protection
Against Electro·Galvanic Action
Prevents electro-galvanic
corrosion, which could occur if the copper or aluminum tube contacted other
metals. This is especially important in moist areas.
Mechanical
Protection
In areas in which tubing is
subjected to vibration or impact, the tubing jacket acts as a cushion.
Low
Cost
Plastic jacketed copper,
stainless steel or aluminum tubing costs less by outlasting more expensive
alloys in a wide variety of corrosive environments.
Lower
Installed Cost
Type 1005 tubing is easier
to work with than exotic alloys. Long coil lengths reduce number of costly
fitting connections, saving time and material costs.
Composite
Product
Plastic coated tubing
combines the formability and strength of metal with the corrosion resistance of
plastic.
