Tubing, Hose & Fittings
John Guest PE range of plastic tubing is available in inch and metric sizes in a variety of colors, produced in Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE).
John Guest tubing provides the benefits of a wide range of temperature and pressure suitability, broad chemical compatibility and is made from non-contaminating materials. Common applications are in water purification, water conditioners, ice makers and misting systems. LLDPE is more robust than traditional low or medium density
polyethylene and is recommended for use with cold and intermittent hot water. John Guest tubing is made from FDA-approved materials and is listed with NSF International Standards 51 and 61.
Applications / Features
John Guest Polyethylene Tubing is designed for use with John Guest Super Speedfit® Push-in fittings, John Guest shut-off valves and virtually all standard tubing connectors. John Guest LLDPE tubing provides excellent resistance to environmental stress-cracking as measured by ASTM D-1693.
John Guest Linear Low-Density Polyethylene Tubing is available in a range of colors and sizes.
