One of polyethylene’s best features is its low cost; however, a low-cost tube often means a short lifespan. That’s why, many years ago, Freelin-Wade made the decision to only extrude our tubing from higher-grade, longer-lasting LLDPE (linear low density polyethylene).LLDPE tubing’s greatest advantage over standard low density polyethylene (LDPE) is its superior environmental crack resistance, or ESCR. Environmental stresses that can affect the longevity of LDPE tubing include chemical exposure, aging, connection to barb-type fittings, and high-vibration connections with compression fittings.Our LLDPE tubing can withstand 500-plus hours of exposure to IGEPAL solution, per ASTM D-1693 ESCR tests. LLDPE tubing also resists cracking when used with compression or push-to-connect fittings. All colors of Freelin-Wade LLDPE tubing comply with FDA regulation 21 CFR 177.1520(c) for food contact applications.
