Yes. Conversions Tech PE tubing is made from food-grade, non-toxic polyethylene that meets FDA and NSF standards, ensuring complete safety for drinking water and food applications.
2. What is the difference between the 1/4” and 3/8” PE pipes?
The 1/4” model is typically used for residential RO systems and beverage lines, while the 3/8” version provides higher flow capacity and pressure tolerance for industrial systems or large aquariums.
3. How flexible is the tubing?
The PE composition maintains excellent flexibility without kinking. It can bend around a 50mm radius without cracking, ideal for compact installations.
4. Can the tubing be exposed to sunlight?
Yes. The hose features UV-resistant additives to prevent degradation and discoloration when used in outdoor or high-UV environments.
5. What pressure can it safely handle?
The 1/4” size withstands up to 8 bar, while the 3/8” variant supports up to 1.5 MPa at 20°C ambient temperature.
6. Is the material resistant to chemicals?
Yes. The tubing provides acid and alkali resistance, suitable for most water treatment and chemical-handling applications.
7. Can I cut the hose to custom lengths?
Absolutely. The PE tubing can be cut cleanly with a sharp blade or hose cutter, maintaining a tight seal when reconnected with push-fit or compression fittings.
8. What fittings are compatible with this tubing?
Conversions Tech tubing is compatible with all standard quick-connect and compression fittings designed for PE hoses of corresponding diameters.
9. What is the standard packaging?
Each roll contains 100 meters of continuous tubing, packaged in export-safe reels to prevent flattening during transit.
10. Can I order in bulk with custom branding or color?
Yes. Conversions Tech offers OEM and wholesale options with color customization, logo printing, and bulk pricing for high-volume distributors.
