Tubing, Thermoplastic Tubing

PharMed® BPT Tubing

PharMed® BPT is a robust, peristaltic pump tubing designed to meet biocompatibility characteristics of medical device and diagnostic systems. Engineered for long service life in peristaltic pumps, PharMed BPT offers superior flex durability that reduces downtime in critical care, surgical, and analytical applications. Its resistance to acids, alkalis, and oxidative agents makes it a reliable choice for a wide range of clinical fluids. Opaque to both visible and UV light, PharMed BPT also helps protect light-sensitive medications and diagnostic reagents, ensuring product stability across use cases.
