Extruded from high-purity, non-toxic food-grade polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this tubing features a glass-clear wall that allows unobstructed visual inspection of fluid flow, phase separation, and air bubbles. The robust 1\/8-inch heavy wall construction provides superior kink resistance, enhanced working pressure capability, and structural stability when subjected to vacuum or suction pressure without collapsing. Supplied as a 50-foot continuous coil, this versatile tubing provides clean, reliable performance across chemical, bioprocessing, and analytical laboratory workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Performance \u0026amp; Structural Attributes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-Wall Kink Resistance: Thick 1\/8\" wall profile prevents flattening, kinking, and vacuum collapse under suction, ensuring uninterrupted fluid delivery around tight radii.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass-Clear Visual Transparency: High optical clarity allows immediate monitoring of liquid movement, color changes, and particulate transport along the line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSmooth Mirror-Finish Inner Bore: Precision-extruded smooth interior surface reduces hydraulic drag, minimizes bio-fouling\/sediment accumulation, and facilitates effective cleaning and rinsing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecure Fitting Seal: Flexible Shore A durometer formulation grips tightly onto standard barbed connectors, glass stopcocks, and serrated adapters to prevent leaks under pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCatalog Number \/ MPN: 8701-0140\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Manufacturer: Thermo Scientific \/ Nalgene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner Diameter (ID): 3\/8 inch (9.52 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOuter Diameter (OD): 5\/8 inch (15.88 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall Thickness: 1\/8 inch (3.18 mm) Heavy Wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial Composition: Non-Toxic, Food-Grade Clear Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDurometer Hardness: Shore A 55 to 65\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature Operating Range: -25°C to 70°C (-13°F to 158°F)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompliance \u0026amp; Standards: Food-grade compliant (FDA 21 CFR), USP Class VI biocompatibility certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePackaging Configuration: 50 Foot Continuous Roll (1 x 50 ft coil)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits \u0026amp; Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVacuum \u0026amp; Aspirator Lines: Heavy wall prevents wall collapse under moderate vacuum pressures during aspirator, filtration, and degassing setups.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-Flow Benchtop Fluid Transfer: Larger 3\/8\" ID supports higher volumetric transfer rates for carboy dispensing, buffer preparation, and media transfer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeristaltic \u0026amp; Metering Pump Lines: Resilient elasticity provides consistent, flexible performance in low-pressure pumping applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBioprocessing \u0026amp; Chemical Transfer: Non-toxic, USP Class VI material ensures safe liquid handling without contaminating sensitive reagents or biological solutions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eAll product names, logos, and brands are property of their respective owners.
