Braid Reinforced Tubing
The industry leader in custom braid reinforced tubing
New England Tubing effectively utilizes its in-house technical staff and years of experience to assist our customers from product development to the finished product.

With our extensive background in the manufacturing of braided tubing for medical devices, New England Tubing is the industry leader in custom braid reinforced tubing. We are able to produce single and multi-lumen reinforced tubing designed to meet your specification. Our team has experience with many different braid materials and types ranging from round and flat stainless steel alloys to high strength monofilament polymers. You provide us with the important characteristics (torque, flexibility, etc.) of your tube, and utilizing our years of experience and accrued knowledge of braid materials and configurations, we will recommend a suitable braid design.

With custom manufacturing, the possibilities are endless. By using different braid designs/configurations and varying the density of the braid we can design varied flexibility over the length. This produces a tube that starts out stiff and gradually gets more and more flexible over its length. Tensile and elongation properties can be managed and manipulated by adding a longitudinal member which can increase tensile strength and reduce elongation. New England Tubing can vary the braid, among many other things, to achieve the desired characteristics and qualities that each and every product requires. Pieces can also be cut to length or delivered in bulk depending on your needs.
