Biopharmaceutical Grade TPE Tubing ia a new formulation of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) has been developed for fluid transfer in the biopharmaceutical industry.
AdvantaFlex® addresses the need for a flexible, translucent, sterilizable, heat sealable, and weldable biopharmaceutical tubing for fluid processing. AdvantaFlex maintains its physical properties following gamma irradiation and autoclave sterilization processes, resists kinking, remains translucent for visible product flow, and does not become gummy. Additionally, the unique properties of AdvantaFlex help it outperform similar tubing in peristaltic pumps.

SINGLE USE MOLDED SILICONE MANIFOLDS - For Batch Filling & Sampling Applications
Single-use molded silicone manifolds are custom made to meet your batch filling and sampling needs in drug and vaccine production.
Molded manifolds, manufactured from platinum-cured Class VI silicone, eliminate the need for barbed fittings while providing a seamless transition from tubing to connection for a continuous, unrestricted, leak-proof flow. Designs range from simple molded sanitary ends to complex configurations with varying lengths of tubing and several molded connections.
Single Use Molded Manifolds are not intended for implantation or continuous steam applications.
Key Features
