PVC, PP & Plastic Products #5141564

We handled the entire development of the tubing, from the initial melt through the final product. Extruded tube could not meet the clients requirements, so we used custom bar and gun drilled the raw materials to a finished tube. The tubing was then put through medical cleaning and a specialized annealing process. The detailed inspection process included checks for concentricity, wall run out, eddy current, chemistry, mechanical property, and 100% straightness verification. The critical applications the tubing would be used for left no room for error. Throughout the entire delicate process, we held tightest tolerances. Each year, we produce enough tubing to produce over 3 million medical stents.

A client in the medical industry approached Tech Tube to draw stainless steel chromatography tubing. We first used our expert research and development team to create a prototype of the 316 stainless steel chromatography tubing. Then, through our unique drawing technique, we were able to draw the tube while maintaining tightest tolerances of +-.0003". Our drawing method also allowed us to achieve below a 12 Ra finish without any post processing. The final product was tested, inspected and then shipped.

An industrial client approached Tech Tube to fabricate high temperature cooling tubing. We began by prototyping the tubing through an exhaustive research and development process. Our final design replaced the original platinum metal with a special stainless steel material that resulted in an 80% savings. After we arrived at the design, we put the tubing through an extensive fabrication process which included end forming, EDM wire, bending and forming. The tubing was then flattened into an oval shape and bent and drilled again, according to the customer's specifications.
