Product overview
Polyether polyurethane tubing, also described as ether-based polyurethane tubing, is listed separately from standard PU tubing in the AIR PASSAGE range. Compare the model information for this family and confirm the exact material designation for your equipment.
Key features
Virgin polyether TPU
100% virgin polyether thermoplastic polyurethane with no regrind or waste material added (data sheet).
Hydrolysis and weather resistance
The data sheet describes resistance to hydrolytic ageing and mould growth, and stable performance in humid or low-temperature environments.

Selection notes and conditions
Selection at a glance
- Product family: Polyether Tubing.
- Media / application scope in the supplied data sheet: Compressed air, industrial water, cleaning-liquid circuits, inert gases, dilute acid/alkali solutions and low-pressure lubricating oil.
- 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.
Confirm the material designation
Confirm the exact polyether formulation and model on the order documents. Similar family names must not be treated as evidence of hydrolysis resistance or suitability for a particular fluid.
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.
Related selection information
Specify the ether-based material and model
Use the product family and model together in your drawing or quotation request. The terms polyether and ether-based identify the material discussion; they do not establish a blanket fluid approval, hydrolysis-resistance rating or operating limit. Confirm the required formulation and supporting documentation.
TECHNICAL DATA

QUESTIONS
Product FAQ
How should I confirm the grade for ether-based polyurethane tubing?
The supplied TDS-PU-2026-V2 identifies virgin polyether TPU. Use its model designation and confirm the required formulation and supporting documents.
Does the listed medium confirm polyether tubing compatibility?
A general medium listing is not a compatibility approval. Provide the exact fluid, concentration, temperature and exposure conditions for a product-specific review.
Which pressure information should I use for polyether tubing?
General source values and model rows can differ. Identify the selected model and request the applicable working-pressure conditions; burst values are not working ratings.
What are the specifications of polyether tubing?
The 14 listed models cover metric sizes from 2.5 x 4 mm to 12 x 16 mm and inch sizes from 1/8" to 1/2", supplied in 100 m or 200 m rolls with a tolerance of ±0.10 mm. Working pressure at 23°C runs from 8 to 12 bar (116 to 175 psi) depending on the model. The supplied data sheet lists a hardness of 95 ± 2 Shore A and an operating temperature range of -40°C to +55°C. Check the exact model in the specifications table.
Is polyether tubing the same as ether-based polyurethane tubing?
Yes. Polyether tubing here is ether-based polyurethane (polyether PU) tubing. Ester-based polyurethane is a different grade, so confirm the material designation, hardness and the medium on the supplied data sheet before you compare it with other polyurethane tubing.
What colors does polyether tubing come in?
The transparent range is clear, transparent blue and transparent red. The solid range is orange, dark blue, sky blue, black, green and yellow. Customer brand logos, model identification and continuous meter markings can be customized. Confirm color, marking and order quantity when you request a quote.
