Verderflex Tubes - Peristaltic Pumps
For safety reasons we do not recommend pumping liquids greater than 85°C (185°F).
Verderflex produces a range of standard tubing to meet the requirements of the wide and varied applications of its tube pumps. However, not all tubes are suitable for use in a peristaltic pump. The following criteria are important when selecting a tube:
- Chemical resistance
- Food grade quality
- Tube life
- Physical compatibility

Verderprene - General purpose tubing
The standard choice for use in peristaltic tube pumps. This white coloured tube has:
- Excellent mechanical strength
- Wide chemical resistance, excellent strength against oxidising agents (ozone, peroxides and hypochlorides)
- Temp. range: +10°C to + 85°C (50°F to 185°F)
- Food Grade Meets FDA and NSF 51 criteria
- Can be autoclaved
- Compatible with most CIP solutions and SIP
- RoHS

Verderchem
Verderchem peristaltic tubing is a high-performance, co-extruded product specifically formulated to provide an ideal combination of chemical resistance and pump life. Its inert ultra-smooth, plasticiser-free bore resists the absorption and adsorption of aqueous fluids while the outer jacket provides long flex life in persitaltic pumps. It is:
- Temp. range -60°C to +54°C (-76°F to 165°F)
- Meets FDA criteria
- Outstanding chemical resistanace
- RoHS

Verderhygienic
Formulated to withstand a temperature range from -80°C to 135°C. Verderhygienic tubing will not crack or deteriorate when used in demanding food and beverage applications. Extremely flexible, it resists kinks and retains its shape making installation quick and easy. Its excellent fexural fatigue resistance makes it the absolute best choice for use in peristaltic pumps in dosing and dispensing applications. It is:
- EC1935/2004 regulations
- Temp. range: -80°C to 135°C (-112°F to 275°F)
- Meets FDA criteria
- (EU) No 10/2011
- NSF-51
- RoHS
