W-TPE® Single-Use Biopharmaceutical Tubing
Considered a standard material in biopharmaceutical processing for decades, this versatile tubing is capable of handling a wide variety of applications including sensitive fluid transfer and peristaltic pumping.
W-TPE® tubing can be fully integrated into any of our single-use solutions such as our Bottle Assemblies and Custom Tube Sets.
Our W-TPE® Biopharmaceutical Tubing Technical Data document provides further tubing details, while the Chemical Resistance Guide offers information on the interaction between W-TPE® tubing and the most common substances that utilize it for transfer.
