Answer:The internal diameter is 3.2 mm and the outside diameter is 4.8 mm.
Answer:The internal diameter affects flow-path volume; the outside diameter controls compatibility with tubing fittings and connections.
Answer:No. The internal and external dimensions differ, so compatibility and fluid-path volume must be evaluated separately.
The Cytiva FEP tubing is a fluid-transfer consumable for compatible chromatography system flow paths. The tubing has a 3.2 mm internal diameter and a 4.8 mm outside diameter, dimensions that determine both its approximate liquid-holding capacity and the fittings needed for secure connections. Fluorinated ethylene propylene (FEP) offers a chemically resistant, relatively inert flow-contact surface for aqueous buffers and suitably compatible process liquids. The tubing is used where a defined internal bore and outside diameter are needed for a service or replacement line. It is not interchangeable by default with tubing having a 4.8 mm bore or a 6.4 mm outside diameter. Incorrect tubing dimensions can alter residence volume, create poor fitting engagement, or increase leakage risk. Match the tubing to the specified valve, connector, and pump positions and maintain clean cut ends during installation.
