Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Altaflo 500 PVDF certification | FDA compliant (21 CFR 177.1500), NSF 61 and NSF 372 certified | Pexco — Fluoropolymer & Thermoplastic Tubing |
| Altaflo 550 PVDF Flex certification | FDA compliant (21 CFR 177.2600), NSF 61 and 37 certified | Pexco — Fluoropolymer & Thermoplastic Tubing |
| Altaflo 550 chemical resistance | Explicitly ozone-resistant; also resists chlorinated/brominated chemicals, alcohols, hydrocarbons | Pexco — Fluoropolymer & Thermoplastic Tubing |
Food-contact tubing needs the FDA/NSF paperwork as much as the chemical resistance — Altaflo's 500 and 550 PVDF lines carry FDA 21 CFR compliance plus NSF 61/372 certification specifically so a food or beverage line doesn't have to trade purity documentation for real ozone and chlorine resistance.
Every claim on this page traces to real, vendor-published documentation on file with LibertyCES. Confirm current specifications with the manufacturer before final specification.
