Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) tubing is a highly versatile and widely used material in the medical field, known for its excellent mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and processing flexibility. TPU tubing is ideal for a range of critical medical applications where durability, flexibility, and patient safety are paramount.
Exceptional Flexibility and Elasticity: TPU tubing provides excellent flexibility, making it suitable for intricate medical devices requiring ease of movement and precision.
High Abrasion and Tear Resistance: The durable nature of TPU ensures the tubing can withstand repeated use and high-stress environments without compromising performance.
Biocompatibility: TPU is safe for use in medical applications, with low cytotoxicity and excellent compatibility with biological tissues.
Sterilization Compatibility: TPU tubing can endure various sterilization processes, including gamma radiation, autoclaving, and ethylene oxide, ensuring hygiene and safety.
Customizable Properties: TPU can be tailored to specific hardness levels, transparency, and color, meeting the unique requirements of different medical devices.
Due to its versatility, TPU tubing is commonly used in applications such as:
Catheters for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular interventions
IV lines and drug delivery systems
Balloon components in interventional devices (PTCA, PTA)
Fluid management and drainage tubes
