Review specifications ↓PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Product overview
Polyethylene air tubing, also described as pneumatic polyethylene tubing, is the PE family shown on this page. Compare ID and OD in the model table and confirm the fitting, medium and operating conditions for the selected model.
Key features
Virgin polyethylene
100% virgin polyethylene with no recycled or reprocessed material added (data sheet).
Water and compressed air
Listed for ambient-temperature water and compressed air. Drinking-water and food-contact applications are reviewed separately.
Colors and marking
Milky white, dark blue, black, green and yellow; custom colors available. Brand logos, model identification and continuous meter markings can be customized.
Temperature range
Air: -10°C to +50°C; Water: 0°C to +55°C; freezing is not permitted
Working pressure

Sizes
10 listed models, outside diameter 4–16 mm. Inch sizes are listed where the data sheet gives them.
How the tubing is made and checked
Tubing is produced on extrusion and coiling lines and checked with dimensional, pressure-hold, burst-pressure and tensile equipment listed in the company inventory. Product requirements are reviewed against the drawing and order.

Selection notes and conditions
Selection at a glance
- Product family: PE Tubing.
- Media / application scope in the supplied data sheet: Ambient-temperature water and compressed air.
- Dimensions: select ID, OD and the stated model values from the table below.
- Inquiry details: include model, dimensions, quantity, fittings and the intended operating conditions.
Match the tubing to the connection
Provide fitting dimensions, the intended installation and any external exposure. Compatibility is confirmed per fluid, and drinking-water use is reviewed separately.
Pressure and temperature conditions
Pressure and temperature ratings are listed separately; send your operating point for a combined-condition check. Working pressure is the design rating; burst pressure is a test value. Confirm the model-specific limits, test conditions and complete fitting assembly before use.

What is polyethylene tubing?
Polyethylene is the material family represented by the PE range on this page. Polyethylene tubing sizes should state ID, OD and units. Confirm the material grade required by your project rather than assuming a density grade or an approval for drinking-water, food or medical service.

TECHNICAL DATA
Specifications & available sizes
Specifications: TDS-PE-2026-V1. Model designations and table values below follow the 2026 technical data sheet for this product.
Dimensions and pressure tables are specified at 23°C. Pressure values are in bar (psi) as stated in the data sheet. Working pressure is the design rating and burst pressure is a test value; pressure and temperature ratings are listed separately, so send your operating point for a combined-condition check.
Tolerance, metric/inch size system and, where applicable, layer construction are identified in each row. Physical properties are reference values from the data sheet; test methods and application-specific compliance are reviewed against your requirements.

QUESTIONS
Product FAQ
Does the PE tubing listing establish drinking-water approval?
No drinking-water or food-contact approval is established by this product listing. Request the relevant model-specific evidence when your project requires it.
Which connections should I identify for PE tubing?
Provide the fitting type, interface dimensions and assembly requirements alongside tube ID, OD and tolerance. Confirm the selected combination before procurement.
Which polyethylene tubing sizes are needed for a pneumatic connection?
Specify ID, OD, units and tolerance, then identify the fitting interface, length, quantity and operating conditions. For polyethylene air tubing, confirm the selected PE model and material grade. Drinking-water, food-contact and medical applications are reviewed separately.
