M-FlexTM tubing is translucent and certified animal component free (ACF). M-Flex™ provides a direct replacement option for TPE tubing used in biopharmaceutical applications. M-FlexTM has been tested extensively for biocompatibility in accordance with USP and ISO standards. It meets the requirements as specified in the current USP Class VI plastics tests and is...

TPE Tubing Platform Versatility M-FlexTM is the TPE of choice in overmolding applications ranging from bottle stoppers to Meissner’s modular BioLink® overmolded tubing and filter sets. BioLink® was purposely designed to reduce the number of unique fluid contact materials in a given single-use assembly and eliminate nearly all mechanical connections. Specifications M-FlexTM tubing performs well over a wide range of temperatures and remains flexible to -60 °C. The tubing can be autoclaved at temperatures as high as 135 °C for up to 60 min. A partial synopsis of the extensive physical and...

Welding M-FlexTM tubing welds exceptionally well using common industry thermal tubing welders and standard recipes. Meissner's comprehensive welding studies, using a variety of tubing sizes, shows high strength quality welds not only for welding of M-FlexTM to itself, but also when welded to other TPE materials commonly used in biopharmaceutical applications. C-Flex® welds to M-Flex™ using the same settings as required to weld C-Flex® 374. M-Flex® welds to itself using the same settings as required to weld C-Flex® 374. Sealing M-FlexTM easily seals using standard TPE Settings on most common...
