Medical PICC Line Tubing

Precision-Engineered Tubing for Peripherally Inserted Central Catheters

  • At Hi-Tech Meds, we manufacture high-performance PICC line tubing engineered for durability, biocompatibility, and long-term vascular access. Our precision extrusion capabilities enable us to produce consistent, medical-grade tubing that meets the demanding requirements of hospital, clinical, and infusion-therapy environments.
    • Designed for safe insertion, smooth navigation, and extended in-vivo performance, Hi-Tech Meds PICC line tubing solutions support OEMs and catheter manufacturers focused on reliability, safety, and patient comfort.

    What Is PICC Line Tubing?

    What Is PICC Line Tubing?

    PICC line tubing is the central body of a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter, a long, flexible medical tube inserted through a peripheral vein—typically in the upper arm—and advanced toward the central veins near the heart.

  • Quality PICC tubing must demonstrate:
    • • Biocompatibility for long-term indwelling use
    • • High kink resistance
    • • Low thrombogenicity (minimized clotting risk)
    • • Excellent flexibility and trackability
    • • Radiopacity for fluoroscopic visibility
    • • Smooth, atraumatic surfaces
    • • Smooth, atraumatic surfaces
    • Hi-Tech Meds produces tubing with medical-grade polymers that deliver consistent performance in PICC line applications.

    Materials for PICC Line Tubing

    Hi-Tech Meds extrudes a range of biocompatible polymers approved for vascular access devices.

  • Common PICC Tubing Materials
    • • Polyurethane (TPU) – the industry standard; offers softness, flexibility, and durability
    • • Medical-Grade Silicone – exceptional biocompatibility for special applications
    • • Pebax® (PEBA) – for enhanced flexibility and trackability
    • • Radiopaque Compounds – barium sulfate or tungsten-filled polymer systems
    • Material Characteristics for PICC Devices
    • • Softens at body temperature for comfortable long-term placement
    • • Smooth inner and outer surfaces reduce thrombosis and infection risks
    • • Stable mechanical properties over prolonged durations
    • Material selection is driven by your device’s performance goals and regulatory requirements.
