Metal Materials



	Your choices are...
	Aluminum		Aluminum is a bluish, silver-white, malleable, ductile, light, trivalent, metallic element that has good electrical and thermal conductivity, high reflectivity, and resistance to oxidation.
	Brass / Bronze		Brass provides good strength, excellent high temperature ductility, and reasonable cold ductility; good conductivity and excellent corrosion resistance; and good bearing properties and low magnetic permeability.
	Copper		Copper tubing may be cut and formed readily and is often used in gas or refrigerant applications. Copper is a common reddish metallic element that is ductile and malleable and is one of the best conductors of heat and electricity.
	Hastelloy®		Hastelloy is a registered trademark of Haynes International, Inc. and covers 22 highly corrosion-resistant metals that are predominantly alloyed with nickel.
	Titanium		Titanium is a hard, lustrous, silvery, element that is relatively abundant in the Earth's crust. It is known for its lightness, strength, and corrosion resistance. For this reason, titanium is used widely in the aerospace industry and the medical fields (e.g., replacement joints). When alloyed with other metals, especially steel, titanium adds strength and oxidation resistance.
	Precious Metal		Precious metals are metals with high material values, such as silver, gold and platinum.
	Steel		Steel is a commercial iron that contains carbon in any amount up to about 1.7 percent as an essential alloying constituent. It is malleable when under suitable conditions, and is distinguished from cast iron by its malleability and lower carbon content.
	Stainless Steel		Stainless steel is chemical and corrosion resistant and can have relatively high-pressure ratings.
	Other		Other unlisted, proprietary, or specialized materials

Performance Specifications


	Pressure Rating		Rated pressure is typically the short term burst pressure at 75° F.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.

	Maximum Vacuum (if applicable):		Maximum rated vacuum is most frequently given in inches or mm of mercury referenced below one standard atmosphere.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.

	Minimum Bend Radius		Minimum bend radius is based on acceptable tubing cross-section deformation.
	Search Logic:		User may specify either, both, or neither of the "At Least" and "No More Than" values. Products returned as matches will meet all specified criteria.

	Temperature Range		This is the full-required range of ambient operating temperature.

Features



	Your choices are...
	Anti-static		Conductive or semi-conductive to prevent buildup of static electricity.
	Coiled / Spiral		Tubing is flexible and with long continuous runs. Can either be coiled as if wrapped around a reel or in a coil format looking and acting like a spring.
	Corrugated		Contains corrugations or pleats convolutions to increase flexibility and capacity for compression and elongation.
	Explosion-proof		Designed not to burst or explode in the event of an interior explosion. Explosion-proof devices are constructed to withstand internal explosion of a specified gas, vapor or dust.
	Finned / Fluted		The tube has fins or flutes formed on the exterior surface. This greatly increases the surface area for heat dissipation. Finned or fluted tubes are used widely in the air conditioning, refrigeration, and heat exchanger applications.
	Multi-element		More than one tube formed or adhered together in a flat or ribbon configuration.
	Multi-layered		Tubing is constructed of multiple concentric layers.
	Reinforced		Tubing material is reinforced with fibers or banding.
	Spark Resistant		Constructed to maintain integrity in the presence of electrical discharge or sparking.
	Sterilizability		Tubing may be sterilized; methods include an autoclave, dry heat, gamma irradiation, and chemical disinfectant.
	Seamless		Tube is seamless in construction. Tubing is typically extruded.
	Welded		Tube is rolled and welded to form cross-section. Weld is continuous along length of pipe.
	Welded and Drawn (W&D)
	Other		Other unlisted, specialized, or proprietary feature.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
