PTFE tubing for fluid transfer

This MERCURY PTFE tubing has a 1/4" outer diameter and a .188" inner diameter. It comes in a 100' length and features a transparent natural colour. The material is PTFE, which resists chemicals and high temperatures.

Suits low-pressure lines needing chemical resistance

It suits installers running small-bore fluid lines where PTFE compatibility is required. It is not for buyers who need a larger inner diameter for higher flow rates. It is not for systems that demand a different tubing material such as rubber or PVC.

Simple to cut and fit with standard fittings

The tubing cuts cleanly with a sharp knife or tubing cutter. Push it onto barbed fittings and secure with clamps for a leak-free seal. The main issue is kinking if the bend radius is too tight, so use gradual curves during routing.

Questions about this item

What fittings do I need to connect the 1/4" OD tubing?

Use compression fittings or push-to-connect fittings sized for 1/4" outside diameter tubing; the .188" inside diameter matches standard 1/4" OD PTFE tube dimensions.

Will this PTFE tube handle the same chemicals as my existing 316 stainless fittings?

Yes, PTFE is chemically inert and compatible with the same aggressive fluids that 316 stainless handles, so the tube will not degrade where it meets your current fittings.

How can I verify the tube is flowing freely after installation?

Run water or air through the 100' coil and check for unrestricted flow at the outlet; the transparent wall lets you visually confirm no blockages or kinks along the run.
