FEP radiopaque tube is medical tubing in FEP, used mainly for contrast procedures. Its role is close to the PTFE radiopaque tube, but the material differs.
Widely used in urinary catheters, drainage tubes, surgical catheters and similar equipment. High transparency and corrosion resistance suit procedures that need sterile conditions and precise control. Beyond medicine, FEP also serves bellows for chemical delivery and gas exhaust in semiconductor equipment.
FEP is melt-extruded, giving better dimensional precision and clarity; PTFE has lower friction. FEP is typical for sheaths and jackets, PTFE for liners.
Yes. A co-extruded radiopaque stripe instead of a fully filled wall is possible.
Yes. TDS · MSDS come with every specification reply. ISO 10993 biocompatibility data varies by grade and lot, so we confirm it with the factory (Linstant) and reply.
Standard sizes start with small sample lots. MOQ and lead time depend on dimensions, material and secondary processing — send OD · ID · wall · tolerance · length · quantity and we reply within one business day.
Inner diameter, wall thickness, length and operating environment — those four settle the item. We reply with TDS, MSDS and MOQ.
