Coated Hypotubes
Clean release, improved thermal management, and reliable processing are engineered into every PTFE Natural® coated hypotube. Optimized lubricity and durable coating performance enable clean, repeatable release, while the hypotubes' enhanced heat dissipation helps manage thermal buildup during processing. The result is reduced scrap, improved yields, and more efficient, repeatable production.
Key Characteristics & Advantages
The Difference in Manufacturing Performance
Unmatched Lubricity
Our PTFE Natural® coating creates an extremely low-friction surface, dramatically reducing the force required to remove the hypotube during processing.
Improved Processing Capability
By improving lubricity and reducing the tool's weight, our solutions enable faster, more efficient processing and improved thermal management.
Precision Application
Our solutions allow us to tailor hypotubes to meet your specific design requirements, ensuring consistent performance and maintaining the integrity of your design.
