A PVC-versus-Polyurethane comparison chart shows the similarities and differences between the two plastics as they relate to tubing and hose. The chart from NewAge Industries Inc., Southampton, Pa., was recently updated to include the latest information and specifications. The chart compares items such as association standards (FDA, NSF, 3A, Class VI), stocked sizes, hardness, tensile strength, operating temperatures, working and burst psi, colors, weather resistance, custom options, and more. The comparison chart also lists various forms of PVC and polyurethane products available from NewAge (www.newageindustries.com/inforeq.asp), as well as grades for pumping liquids such as fuel and oil, ether-based polyurethane for use with water and moisture, and specially-designed pneumatic tubing.
