Hypodermic Tubing Information and Gauge Chart

New England Small Tube provides custom and stock hypodermic tubing commonly used in medical, industrial, and scientific applications. Hypodermic tubing is a type of small-diameter, thin-walled tubing. It is often made from 304 or 316 stainless steel due to its durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to be sterilized.

Standard hypodermic tubing is most commonly welded and plug drawn for a smooth and consistent ID finish throughout. Tolerances are typically held tighter than other draw types and more economical due to the ease of manufacturing.
