Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing

Tygon® UV Resistant Tubing will meet UL 94V-0 and UL 94HB flammability ratings.
Versatility in Chemical Resistance

Ideal for virtually any permanent or temporary chemical transfer application, Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing Tubing combines suppleness and flexibility with resistance to a wide range of chemicals. It shows exceptional resistance to strong acids and many alkalies.

The flexibility of Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing makes it quick and easy to put into service, providing considerable savings on installation time and cost.

Outstanding Weatherability

Black in color, is is resistant to ultraviolet light, ozone and weathering, making it ideal for many outdoor applications. Standard inventoried sizes of Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing have sufficient wall thickness to block transmission of all UV light.


Excellent Burn Resistance

Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing will meet UL 94V-0 and UL 94HB flammability ratings. Specifying Versilon™ R-3400 Chemical Transfer Tubing for use in equipment that requires specific burn characteristics can help to simplify the approval process.
