Natural Rubber Latex Tubing meets or exceeds the physical properties of Commercial Item Description A-A-50247C Type I Class 1,2, and 3, Type III, Type IV, and Type V Class 1,2, and 3 which replaced Federal Specification ZZ-T-831D. Tubing is in compliance with USP Biological Classification IV.
We support the world-wide goal to eliminate the use of ozone depleting chemicals. We do not knowingly use a Class I or class II ozone depleting chemical as identified in the U.S. Clean Air Amendments of 1990 in the manufacturing process of our natural rubber latex tubing.
