VICI Metronics

VICI Metronics’ striped color-coded PEEK tubing is a single layer of extruded PEEK marked with a striped pattern along the outer circumference for ID (Inner Diameter) dimensional identification. This stripe is ion-bonded to the outer circumference of the tubing, resulting in a permanent mark that will not rub off over time. This PEEK tubing is metal-free and ideal for applications that require dimensional identification and nothing but virgin PEEK within the inner circumference.

Order Specifications

The 1/16” OD striped color-coded PEEK tubing is available in standard sizes or OEM quantities with any ID specified from 0.002” (0.0508 mm) to 0.030” (0.75 mm).

Striped color-coded PEEK tubing is an excellent alternative to solid color tubing, and contains none of the additives used for solid color PEEK tubing. The permanently ion-bonded stripe is only on the outer circumference of the tubing, ensuring that raw virgin PEEK is the only material your sample will encounter during transport. The stripe is useful for ID dimensional identification, especially in applications with several different tubing sizes.

Because this tubing is metal-free, it will not leach metal ions into the eluent or extract metal-sensitive components from the sample.

Some typical applications for VICI Metronics’ striped color-coded PEEK tubing include:

• High Pressure or Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
• Gas Chromatography (GC)
• Solvent Transfer
• Chemically Inert (High Purity) Gas Transfer

VICI Metronics striped color-coded PEEK tubing is compatible with all Valco fittings, high and low-pressure Valco fittings, and all tube compression fittings. The standard 1/16” tubing will be compatible with all 1/16” fittings, and as such, can often be used as an alternative to steel tubing where applicable.
