Tubing & Hose Buying Tips
#7: Clarity
It can be challenging to make sure you’ve covered all the bases during the tubing and hose selection process. Have you considered all the elements involved with the application? Temperatures, chemicals, pressures, flexibility needs? In Tubing & Hose Buying Tips we’ll address common selection factors, one at a time, in each issue of extrusions.
 Do you need to see the flow of product through the tubing or hose to check for consistency, progression, or to note measurements? Perhaps the nature of the application makes it undesirable to see what’s inside, so an opaque color is called for.
Do not assume that because one style of a particular hose material is crystal clear that all hose of that material is the same. The hose’s construction, whether it’s reinforced with wire, braid, or spirals, can greatly affect its clarity.

Polyethylene
 Discovered in the 1930’s, polyethylene has long been recognized as an engineering plastic that exhibits a high degree of inertness. This makes it attractive for use in markets such as food and beverage, laboratories, and chemical processing where leaching or permeability presents risks. Polyethylene is also a lower-cost plastic material and satisfies many requirements that call for inexpensive, lightweight tubing. It handles a wide variety of applications ranging from potable water feeds to pneumatic lines used in instrumentation.
