Tygon® XL-60

Flexible Food & Beverage Dispensing Tubing

Tygon® XL-60 clear peristaltic pump tubing from Saint-Gobain is ideal for food and beverage dispensing. It has the ability to maintain pump life for more than 500 hours and, with a durometer hardness of Shore A 60, it is extremely flexible and long lasting – reducing downtime due to pump tubing failure. This high-performance tubing is an excellent alternative to silicones and PVC when longer pump life is required. Tygon® XL-60 is resistant to ozone, oxygen, and sunlight aging, as well as chemicals and a wide range of fluids, including acids and bases. It remains flexible at -40°F and is temperature resistant up to 250°F, and its translucent color makes it easy to monitor the liquids flowing through it.
