TYTT-METRIC

Supported Applications

The OMEGAFLEX® Chemical Tubing PTFE FORMULATION (Series TYTT) is a specialty tubing line designed for chemical handling and fluid transfer applications. The series utilizes TFE material, which appears as translucent white, to provide flexible conduit solutions in industrial settings.

Operating Conditions & Performance

The documented performance envelope focuses on pressure ratings at 73°F across various metric diameters. Burst or working pressures vary by outer diameter (OD) and inner diameter (ID), ranging from 90 psi for the 14 mm OD size to 320 psi for the 4 mm OD size, as listed in the specification table.

Key dimensional parameters include a consistent wall thickness of 1 mm across all standard sizes. The series is available with outer diameters ranging from 4 mm to 16 mm and corresponding inner diameters from 2 mm to 14 mm. Field testing is recommended by the manufacturer to determine actual operating specifications for specific applications.

Configuration Options

The TYTT series offers a range of metric configurations defined by outer diameter, wall thickness, and length. The product overview notes that specialty tubing styles include coiled, Kevlar® wrapped, plastic overbraided, metal overbraided, flexible styles, and custom lengths.

Standard Dimensions

• Wall Thickness: 1 mm (standard across listed models)
• Outer Diameter (OD): Available in 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 mm increments.
• Inner Diameter (ID): Corresponding sizes of 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, and 14 mm.

Length Options & Packaging

The series is sold in standard lengths of 25, 50, and 100 feet. Packaging configurations are defined by length:

• 25 ft: Coiled in a no-splice package.
• 50 ft: Maximum 2-splice package.
• 100 ft: Maximum 3-splice package.

Model Number Construction

The model number follows the format TYTT-<OD>-<Length>, where OD represents the outer diameter in millimeters and Length is specified in feet. For example, TYTT-1412-100 denotes 100 ft of tubing with a 1 mm wall, 14 mm OD, and 12 mm ID.

Material & Origin

The wetted material is PTFE (Teflon®). The product is made in the USA. While standard lengths are stocked, custom lengths and specialized styles such as Kevlar® wrapped or metal overbraided tubing are available options.

Key Product Differences

Variations within the TYTT-METRIC series are distinguished primarily by diameter size (OD/ID) and total length. The pressure rating decreases as the outer diameter increases; for instance, the 4 mm OD model supports up to 320 psi @73°F, whereas the 16 mm OD model is rated at 80 psi @73°F.

Available variants in this bundle include models such as TYTT-42 (4 mm OD), TYTT-64 (6 mm OD), and TYTT-1412 (14 mm OD) across various lengths. The series supports both short runs (25 ft) for localized connections and longer continuous runs up to 100 ft, with splice counts increasing proportionally with length.
