thermoforming fluoropolymers
fluoroplastic retractable coils
Retractable coils can be made from FEP, PTFE and PFA tubing and are ideal for pharmaceutical and food delivery systems.
All our fluoropolymer tubing can be formed into retractable coils. Using thermoforming technology and custom in-house tooling we can create retractable coils in FEP, PTFE and PFA. Other polymers are available but would be subject to a minimum order quantity.
Custom sizes can be made, and specialist fittings can be applied to meet the demands of your application.
All our retractable coils can be volume checked for critical applications and the ends can be supplied flanged or flared if required.
Retractable Coils Properties
-
FEP retractable coils have a working temperature of -200°C to +200°C.
-
PTFE and PFA coils have a temperature range of -200°C to +260°C.
-
The tube has a smooth bore and is chemically inert.

Fluoroplastic retractable coils offer flexibility and durability
here are many different materials from which coils can be constructed, but coils constructed from fluoropolymer tubing (also known as retractable cables) offer unparalleled flexibility and durability.
Case study: Large bespoke extension coil
We developed and produced a large fluoroplastic extension coil for a pharmaceutical application. Our customer required the coil to be custom-made and follow strict criteria.
