Single-lumen tubing is a type of tubing that features a single internal passage or lumen. It typically has a round outer diameter and is designed for applications where the delivery or transportation of a single substance, such as air, fluids, or wires, is required. Common uses include shaft tubing, balloon tubing, flow restrictors, IV tubing, and sheaths—all of which require consistent performance and tight tolerances.
