What are the differences between the different types of tubes?
A. Antistatic tubes are generally made of clear plastic and then treated with an antistatic agent to add the electrical properties to the tubes. Antistatic tubes can be made from PVC, Polystyrene (PS), Polycarbonate (PC), ABS or PET-G. Static Dissipative tubes are black and opaque. This is due to the carbon particles that give it its electrical properties. Most static dissipative tubes have an additional window made from clear plastic to allow visual inspection of the components within the tubes. Currently, static dissipative tubes are made from PVC. Conductive tubes are also black and opaque. Visually, it is not possible to differentiate static dissipative and conductive tubes. Most conductive tubes also have an additional clear window to facilitate the inspection of the components packed inside the tubes. Conductive tubes are also available only in PVC at the moment.
