INT Medical Coiled Tube

Product Code: SPAC-2832

Self-Retracting Extension Tubing in PVC and Polyurethane, at 500 and 350 psi with Check Valve Options

The INT Medical Coiled Tube is a self-retracting extension tubing range from INT Medical, designed to take up slack automatically during infusion and injection. Featuring a coiled construction that stretches and retracts, DEHP-free and latex-free materials, and optional back check valves, it comes in PVC at 500 psi and polyurethane at 350 psi, with two-way and needle-free variants, delivering a managed fluid path without loose tubing. Available through Medigear.uk.

Extension tubing connects a syringe or infusion line to the patient, and the usual problem with it is slack. A straight length long enough to reach comfortably is too long when the patient or the equipment moves closer, and the excess loops on the bed or trails toward the floor where it can be pulled or caught.

Coiling solves that mechanically. The tubing is set in a helix, so it extends when tension is applied and retracts when released. Reach is available when wanted and gone when not, without anyone managing it.

Two material families are offered. The PVC references run 1.8 mm bore inside a 3.3 mm outer diameter, giving a 0.75 mm wall and a 500 psi rating at 150 cm. The polyurethane references are finer, at 1 x 2 mm or 1.3 x 2.3 mm with a 0.5 mm wall, rated to 350 psi at 200 cm. The thinner wall accounts for the lower pressure rating despite polyurethane being the tougher material. Configuration then varies within the PVC family, from a plain line through a two-way connector to versions carrying one or two back check valves. At the same time, the polyurethane family adds a needle-free connector option. Both are declared DEHP-free and latex-free. The PMT01 prefix places the PVC references in the same family as INT's straight high-pressure extension tubing, which carries the same 500 psi rating in that material.

Back check valves are also offered on request beyond the two configurations tabulated. Medigear.uk supplies the range to UK infusion and interventional services.

Any line running from a pump or syringe to a patient has to be long enough for the worst case. The patient may be moved, the trolley repositioned, the equipment shifted during imaging. Sizing the tubing for that leaves it too long the rest of the time, and the surplus has to go somewhere.

Loose tubing is a nuisance and occasionally more than that. It loops across bedding where it can be lain on, it hangs toward the floor where it collects contamination, and it presents something to catch on a rail or a moving trolley. A line pulled taut transmits that force to whatever it is connected to, which at the patient end is a cannula or a catheter.

Coiled tubing removes the surplus without anyone having to attend to it. The helix extends under tension and returns when released, so the line is only as long as it currently needs to be. Beyond that convenience, the specification questions are the usual ones for a fluid path. Pressure rating determines whether the line can be used with a powered injector or only by hand, and 500 psi against 350 psi separates the two families here. Bore governs flow rate and priming volume, with the wider PVC lines passing more and the finer polyurethane lines holding less. Check valves matter wherever more than one source shares a route to the patient. Material declarations matter for anything in prolonged contact.

Line selection is made against the injector or pump in use as much as the patient. Medigear.uk supplies the instructions for use with every order.

Slack Managed Automatically

The coil extends and retracts on its own, so a line long enough for the worst case does not loop on the bed for the rest of the time.

Reduced Snag and Pull Risk

Tubing that gathers itself back offers less to catch on a rail or trolley, and a line pulled taut transmits that force to the cannula at the patient end.

Two Pressure Ratings

500 psi in PVC and 350 psi in polyurethane cover powered injection and lower-pressure work, so the line matches how it will be used.

Two Bore Options in Polyurethane

1 x 2 mm and 1.3 x 2.3 mm allow you to trade flow rate and priming volume within the same material.

Check Valve Configurations

One or two back check valves prevent a higher-pressure source from pushing fluid back into a lower-pressure line rather than toward the patient.

Needle-Free Connector Option

ET0502 allows syringe access without a needle, removing sharps exposure at a point that is accessed repeatedly.

DEHP-Free and Latex-Free

Both declarations matter for a fluid path in prolonged patient contact, and phthalate content carries labelling obligations above a threshold.

Coiled Construction

Helical tubing that extends under tension and retracts when released.

The INT Medical Coiled Tube addresses a small but persistent problem: tubing long enough for the worst case is surplus most of the time, and that surplus has to go somewhere. A helix that extends and gathers itself removes the need to manage it. Two material families cover powered injection at 500 psi and lower-pressure work at 350 psi, with the difference tracking wall thickness rather than material strength, and check valve and needle-free options sit within them. Three points want clarifying. The stated length is not specified as coiled or extended, and that is the figure a buyer chooses. ET0501A and ET0501 carry identical descriptions. The pressure column is headed in megapascals, while the values are in PSI. Medigear.uk will resolve all three before offering this range.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything buyers need to know about sourcing medical equipment through MediGear.

Connecting a syringe or infusion source to a patient line while managing the slack between them. The coil extends when reach is needed and retracts when it is not, so tubing does not loop on the bed or trail where it can be caught. Medigear.uk supplies the range to UK infusion and interventional services.

The sheet does not say, and it matters. A coiled tube has a relaxed length and a considerably greater extended length, and 150 or 200 cm could describe either. A buyer choosing on reach needs the extended figure, while a buyer choosing on bench footprint needs the relaxed one. Medigear.uk will obtain both.

Wall thickness. The PVC references carry a 0.75 mm wall against 0.5 mm on the polyurethane, and pressure capacity follows wall thickness closely. Polyurethane is the tougher of the two materials, but the finer polyurethane tubing here has less wall to work with, so it is rated to 350 psi versus 500 psi.

Prevent backflow. In a line where more than one source connects, a higher-pressure line can push fluid back into a lower-pressure one rather than toward the patient. A back check valve permits flow in one direction only. PMT0109 carries one, and PMT0110 carries two, on the two-way configuration.

That the plasticiser DEHP is not used. It is a phthalate long used to soften PVC, and concerns about its effects during prolonged patient contact have driven a move away from it in infusion products. Devices containing phthalates above a threshold carry labelling and justification requirements, so a DEHP-free declaration matters.

Nothing the sheet shows. Both list polyurethane at 1 x 2 mm, 200 cm, 350 ps, and a female-to-male luer lock. Only the reference distinguishes them. ET0501B differs legitimately by bore at 1.3 x 2.3 mm. Medigear.uk will establish what separates the first two.

Apparently in error. The heading reads MPa with PSI in brackets, but the values given are 500 and 350, which are PSI figures. In megapascals, those would read 3.4 and 2.4. The values are correct as PSI, so the heading rather than the data appears wrong.

Neither is confirmed in the material supplied, and no priming volume or check-valve cracking pressure is provided either. No CE or UKCA information is given. Medigear.uk will establish the position and obtain the instructions for use before supply.
