TYGON® 2475
Plasticizer Free Thermoplastic Tubing

Features/Benefits• Exceptionally low gas permeationcompared to silicone• Smooth inner surface inhibits
particulate entrapment• Highly resistant to aggressive cleaners andsanitizers• Free from added plasticizers or oils
• Meets USP Class VI criteria

Plasticizer free for lower extractables

Typical Applications

Tygon® 2475 plasticizer free tubing is formulated without the addition ofsoftening agents or oils, reducing potential contamination of sensitive fluids inbiopharmaceutical applications. The absence of plasticizers allows the tubing tostand up to aggressive acids, bases and solvents that would react with or extract
plasticizer from a standard PVC tube. The crystal clear construction of Tygon 2475
tubing allows visual inspection of fluid path to ensure consistency of flow. Tygon
2475 has lower gas permeation than standard silicone tubing, protecting sensitive
fluids from moisture loss and oxidation.

• Aseptic filling and dispensing systems

Low wetting and ultra smooth
The low surface energy of Tygon® 2475 reduces wetting of aqueous substances,
allowing higher recovery of fluids. Its superior surface smoothness reduces thepotential for microbial buildup, especially critical in bioprocess applications. Inaddition, Tygon 2475 has very low absorption of aqueous substances minimizing therisk of fluid alteration in single use or repeat use applications.

Fully Characterized and Biocompatible
Tygon® 2475 comes complete with biocompatible, physiochemical and extractable
testing which can be found in the Validation Guide Summary on the Saint-Gobain
Bioprocess Solutions website.

*Working pressures are calculated at a 1:5 ratio relative to burst pressure using ASTM D1599.
The values listed for working and burst pressures are derived from tests conducted under controlled laboratory conditions. Many factors will reduce
the tubing’s ability to withstand pressures, including temperature, chemical attack, stress, pulsation and the attachment to fittings. It is imperative thatthe user conduct tests simulating the conditions of the application prior to specifying the tubing for use.
