Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
POLYURETHANE 98 MB-LONGLIFE® is a Mebra Tubes solution based on Ester polyurethane, selected for demanding tube-routing, pneumatic, fluid-transfer or specialist industrial requirements. The product profile combines the material, construction and application characteristics documented for this exact Mebra product family.
Flexible ester-based polyurethane tube, hardness 52 Shore D. Flexibility 8.7, lightness 5, chemical resistance 3, low-temperature resistance 8.7, high-temperature resistance 4, hardness 6, dimensional stability 10, abrasion resistance 8.5. Designed for low-pressure pneumatic applications with narrow bending radius, dimensional stability, kink resistance, abrasion resistance and high-speed handling. Standard lengths 25/50/100 m. Recommended fittings: quick, push-in and compression. Operating temperature -40°C to 60°C; safety factor 3:1. Example PU2X4: 2/4 mm, 1 mm wall, 10 mm bend radius, 22 BAR; PU4X6: 4/6 mm, 1 mm, 25 mm, 13 BAR; PU8X12: 8/12 mm, 2 mm, 50 mm, 13 BAR.
The documented technical profile is intended to support correct selection by considering pressure, temperature, dimensional, flexibility, chemical, abrasion, electrical and environmental requirements as applicable to the product. Where the product page provides numerical ratings, those values are retained rather than replaced with generic estimates.
The Mebra product information includes exact dimensional variants, tubing geometry, wall thickness, bending requirements, working-pressure information and/or configuration data where applicable. These values should be selected according to the required tube size and application conditions.
Temperature and pressure limits are application-dependent and must be selected from the documented product range. The technical information above preserves the published operating ranges, safety factor information and size-specific values available for POLYURETHANE 98 MB-LONGLIFE®.
POLYURETHANE 98 MB-LONGLIFE® is suited to the application areas documented for this product, including industrial automation, pneumatic equipment, vacuum systems, machine tools, robotics, fluid handling, automotive, food-contact, welding, cable-carrier or specialist environments where applicable to the selected construction.
Connection and installation should follow the product-specific fitting recommendations and dimensional requirements. Correct tube cutting, support, bending radius and fitting selection are important for maintaining sealing, pressure performance and service life.
Depending on the product, available options include color, diameter, length, packaging, marking/stamp, straight-cut pieces, preformed designs, tube-in-bar formats, multi-tube configurations and other documented customizations.
POLYURETHANE 98 MB-LONGLIFE® provides a product-specific combination of material characteristics, dimensions, operating limits and application suitability. Use the exact size, configuration and operating conditions shown in the technical information for final selection.
