TYGON® 2475 I.B.
High Pressure Thermoplastic Tubing

Features/Benefits• No added plasticizer• Tough braid reinforcement for elevatedworking pressures• Meets USP <88> Class VI

Typical Applications• Deionized water systems• Aseptic fill lines

Higher pressure capabilities
Tygon® 2475 I.B. high pressure thermoplastic tubing is engineering with textile
reinforcement to withstand higher pressures. Using the same smooth inner fluid
contact layer as Tygon® 2475, Tygon 2475 I.B. may be successfully used for higher
pressure applications such as single use UF/DF systems and chromatographysystems.

No added plasticizers for lower potential extractables
Tygon® 2475 I.B. is formulated without the addition of softening agents which may
extract, reducing potential contamination of sensitive fluids in biopharmaceuticalapplications. The absence of plasticizers allows the tubing to stand up to aggressive
acids, bases and solvents that would react with or extract plasticizer from a standard
PVC tube. The clear construction of Tygon® 2475 I.B. tubing allows visual inspectionof the fluid path to ensure consistency of flow. Tygon 2475 I.B. has lower gas
permeation than standard silicone tubing, protecting sensitive fluids from oxidation.

Low wetting and ultra smooth
The low surface energy of Tygon® 2475 I. B. reduces wetting of aqueous substances,
allowing higher recovery of fluids. Its superior surface smoothness reduces thepotential for microbial buildup, especially critical in bioprocess applications. In
addition, Tygon 2475 I. B. has very low absorption of aqueous substances which
minimizes the risk of fluid alteration in single use or repeat use applications.

Tested biocompatibility
Tygon® 2475 I.B. meets USP <88> Class VI criteria.

25.0 (635)*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 that theuser conduct tests simulating the conditions of the application prior to specifying the tubing for use.
