Upchurch Scientific® PEEK™ Tubing, IDEX Health & Science
Tubing Chromatography Tubing
Upchurch Scientific® PEEK™ (polyetheretherketone) polymer tubing is biocompatible, chemically inert to most solvents, and can be used to replace stainless steel tubing in most liquid analytical systems.

  • Unlike stainless steel tubing, PEEK™ tubing is flexible and can be easily cut to desired lengths
  • PEEK™ tubing can be used with stainless steel or polymer fittings
  • Autoclavable
  • Sterilization: Gamma irradiation; ethylene oxide; thermal

Standard size PEEK™ polymer tubing is available in ¹/₁₆", ¹/₈", and 1.8 mm outside diameters, with maximum continuous use temperature of 100 °C. Much of the ¹/₁₆" outside diameter (ext.Ø) tubing is color-coded so different inside diameters (IDs) are easily identified. The proprietary extrusion process ensures color permanence in the tubing. Standard size PEEK™ tubing is commonly offered in 5' sections; however, most standard sizes are also available in 50 or 100' sections. The 5' length tubing is rough cut to approximately 5' 1". A trim cut should be made before use, especially for smaller ID tubing. PEEK™ tubing can be cut easily with a razor blade. However for an improved cut, try Upchurch Scientific® Tubing cutters.

Upchurch Scientific® capillary PEEK™ tubing offers all the benefits of larger sized PEEK™ tubing, while serving as an excellent alternative to more traditional fused silica and stainless steel capillary tubing. Capillary PEEK™ tubing is available in 510 µm or ¹/₃₂" outside diameters. The capillary tubing can be coupled to many other Upchurch Scientific® connectors and valve products.

PEEK™ tubing has a very smooth internal surface, which causes less turbulence than similar sized metal tubing, contributing to improved resolution of sample bands. Of all the Upchurch Scientific polymer tubing materials, PEEK™ tubing is the least permeable to gas.
