Saint-Gobain Tygon® S3™ B-44-4X Phthalate-free Food, Milk, and Dairy tubing
Categories: Polymer; Thermoplastic

Material Notes: Tygon S3™ B-44-4X, from Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics, is now phthalate-free. Saint-Gobain is proud to be among the first companies to offer sustainable flexible tubing products. The bio-based Tygon S3™ line combines the high performance standards customers demand with an eco-friendly tubing design.

Tygon S3™ Food, Milk and Dairy Tubing offers dependable performance in countless filling, draining, transfer and processing applications. Its smooth, non-porous bore inhibits particle entrapment, promoting a sanitary fluid path by minimizing potential for bacterial growth. It has outstanding resistance to harsh alkaline cleaners and is equally unaffected by commonly used sanitizers.

Non-toxic, taste-free and odor-free, Tygon S3™ Food, Milk and Dairy Tubing meets applicable regulatory standards for contact with food products. Complete clarity for positive visual inspection and flow control, it is available in up to a 6" inside diameter, making it a flexible replacement for rigid piping systems.
