BD 427416 - Intramedic Polyethylene Tubing Durable Laboratory Tubing for Precision Fluid Transfer

BD 427416 - Intramedic Polyethylene Tubing Durable Laboratory Tubing for Precision Fluid Transfer

The BD 427416 Intramedic Polyethylene Tubing is a high-quality, laboratory-grade tubing designed for reliable fluid transfer in research, clinical, and diagnostic applications. Manufactured from premium polyethylene, this tubing offers excellent chemical resistance, flexibility, and dimensional stability. It is ideal for procedures requiring consistent flow, minimal absorption, and dependable performance under routine laboratory conditions.

Key Benefits

This Intramedic tubing provides smooth internal surfaces for accurate, uninterrupted fluid passage, reducing the risk of clogs or flow irregularities. Polyethylene construction ensures compatibility with a wide range of aqueous solutions and chemicals commonly used in laboratory workflows. Its non-reactive material minimizes leaching and sample interference, supporting high-integrity experimental results. The durable build also withstands repeated handling without kinking or tearing.

Compatibility and Applications

BD Intramedic Polyethylene Tubing is compatible with standard lab connectors, cannulas, pumps, and micro-delivery systems. Common uses include:

• General laboratory fluid transfer
• Microinjection procedures
• Animal research applications
• Perfusion setups and custom assemblies
• Collection and delivery of biological samples
• Pump-driven flow systems

Usage Guidelines

Cut the tubing to the desired length using a clean, sharp blade to maintain smooth edges. Connect securely to compatible fittings to prevent leaks. Avoid excessive stretching or twisting. Use only within recommended temperature and pressure limits. Store tubing in a cool, dry environment to maintain flexibility and performance.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

BD Intramedic tubing is produced under ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certified quality systems. Materials are tested for purity, sterility (where applicable), and dimensional accuracy to support consistent laboratory performance. The product complies with standard laboratory material requirements for non-reactivity and chemical compatibility.

Comparison with Competitor Products

Compared to generic polyethylene tubing, BD Intramedic tubing offers greater dimensional precision, superior clarity, and reduced risk of collapse during low-pressure flow. Competitor products may exhibit inconsistent wall thickness or lower chemical resistance. BDs long-standing reliability ensures consistent functionality across a wide range of research and diagnostic workflows.

Typical User Profile and Application Scenarios

This tubing is frequently used by:

• Biomedical and life sciences researchers
• Clinical laboratory personnel
• Pharmacology and academic research teams
• Animal research facilities
• Technicians assembling custom lab apparatus

Best Practices for Use and Maintenance

Keep tubing free of kinks to maintain consistent flow. Rinse thoroughly with appropriate solvents if used repeatedly with the same reagents. Replace tubing immediately if signs of wear, discoloration, or stiffness occur. Avoid prolonged exposure to high temperatures or direct sunlight.

Regulatory and Safety Information

For laboratory use only. Not intended for medical implant or direct patient-contact applications unless specified. Handle reagents and samples flowing through the tubing according to institutional biosafety guidelines.
