Overview
The 498D white flexible PVC tubing is engineered for reliable performance in high-pressure fluid and pneumatic transfer applications. With a maximum working pressure rating of 250 PSI, this tubing delivers dependable service in industrial, commercial, and light municipal settings. The white color provides inherent UV protection, preventing degradation from extended outdoor or direct sunlight exposure. Flexible PVC construction allows easy routing around equipment and machinery without the need for rigid fittings.
Key Features
- 250 PSI maximum working pressure rating for pneumatic and hydraulic lines
- White color formulation with UV protection to resist sunlight damage
- Flexible PVC material for easy installation and equipment routing
- Smooth inner bore compatible with standard barbed fittings
- Chemical and oxidation resistant for industrial fluid transfer
- Durable construction suitable for extended outdoor use
