Natvar will be discussing its latest silicone tubing range which features an inside diameter of 0.2-25 mm (0.0079-0.984 inches), with wall thicknesses ranging from 0.10-3.0 mm (0.0039-0.118 inches), and tolerances as low as +/- 0.03 mm (0.001 inch). This newly expanded range of Natvar single-lumen silicone tubing is intended to better serve a range of medical pump applications, including peristaltic and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pumps.

Additionally, Natvar’s SurePath 151 coextruded PE/PVC tubing is ideal for anesthesia monitoring lines, as well as administering unstable solutions such as nitroglycerine and insulin.
