Tygon S3™ E-3603 Food & Beverage Dispensing Tubing (Formerly "Laboratory & Vacuum Tubing")

Tygon S3™ E-3603 Food & Beverage Dispensing Tubing handles most inorganic chemicals found in the laboratory. It is nonoxidizing and non-contaminating, and less permeable than rubber tubing. The glassy-smooth inner bore helps prevent buildup to facilitate cleaning. Coils are marked at 1-foot (30.4 cm) intervals for easy measuring.

The Tygon S3™ E-3603 has extra-heavy walls that will withstand a full vacuum at room temperature (29.9" [759mm] of mercury at 73°F [23°C] and up to 27" [686mm] of mercury at 140°F [60°C]). Like standard Tygon® Laboratory Tubing, Tygon S3™ E-3603 Tubing resists most inorganic chemicals and can be used in corrosive atmospheres.

The most consistently reliable tubing for the transfer of liquids and gases, Tygon S3™ E-3603 Food & Beverage Dispensing Tubing handles virtually all inorganic chemicals found in today's laboratories.
