Assembly & Post Production Services
Our offerings beyond the tube body
In addition to the design and manufacture of the tube body, our commitment to comprehensive tubing solutions extends to include a variety of tube assembly services and post processing enhancements to further expand upon the capability of your custom tube.

Assembly: connectors and various components can be integrated into the tube design to deliver convenience and efficiency.  An ISO Class 8 environment is available for assembly services to ensure quality and consistency.

UV Adhesive Application: creates robust bonds and seals. Rapid curing under ultraviolet light ensures a strong and durable connection between components.

Tipping: tapered tips, rounded ends, specific tip geometries, radiused, low-profile, atraumatic, and radiopaque ends can be added to aid in the insertion and guidance of devices.

Hubbing & Flaring: expansion of the OD of the tube improves accessibility of the interior of the tube allowing easy integration into complex systems.

Centerless Grinding: provides precise diameter control and ensures a smooth and polished finish to either the entire tube length or to one end or section of the tube. Stepped or end grind can be utilized for ease in adding fittings and other components.

Annealing: a heat treatment process consisting of controlled heating and cooling cycles used to straighten and enhance the mechanical properties of the tube by relieving any internal stresses that may result from the manufacturing process.

Lasering: ablation, cutting, or drilling preformed in a variety of patterns with the highest precision, they allow for stent or device routing, irrigation, and constant rate drug delivery.

WHAT WE DO
New England Tubing Technologies provides an array of custom products including medical braid, spiral and braid reinforced tubing, lubricious lined catheter shafts, multi-lumen and multi-durometer tubing, and hybrid tubing. We excel in thin-wall, tight tolerance tubing, bonding layers of thermoplastic to fluoropolymer, and braiding all types of round and flat wire. In addition to traditional tubing products, we also offer eTubing® — hybrid tubing configurations that include signal, coax, or other electrical components within the walls of the tube.  A wide range of value-added and post-processing services such as tipping, hubbing/flaring, shaping/forming, and radiopaque striping are available to further enhance your design.
