Turn Your Pain Points into Worry-Free Workflows

Leak-Free Fittings and Tubing

One thing you may struggle with are leaks—often caused by fittings. Even the smallest of leaks can lead to big losses in:

  • Sample integrity
  • Reproducibility
  • Instrument uptime

Our leak-free, high-precision fittings and tubing are engineered for:

  • Tight tolerances
  • Repeatable sealing

More Sensitivity

Your life science system also demands higher resolution and detection of low-expression markers, and the fluidic materials can’t adsorb analytes, or introduce variability.

We offer materials built for sensitivity:

  • Bioinert materials
  • Low adsorption surfaces
  • Designed for:
    • High-sensitivity assays
    • Rare-cell workflows

Supplier Fragmentation

You may also struggle with supplier fragmentation, where inconsistent quality, supply chain risk, and integration challenges can hinder your discoveries.

We Are Your Full Solution Partner

What you need is a strategic partners vs. a transactional vendor. With IDEX Health & Science, you can accelerate your breakthroughs as your reliable one-stop shop for all your fluidic connection needs:

  • Standardization and reproducibility
  • Simplified workflows
  • Fittings, tubing, and assemblies
  • Global supply chain and ISO-certified

Reduced System Complexity

We don’t stop there. We also offer custom engineering support with co-design capabilities, application-specific solutions (e.g., flow cytometry optimization), and testing and validation expertise, helping you design smarter, less complex systems.


Our Expertise in Action: From Complexity to Confidence

Before: Complexity That Slows You Down

  • Complex tubing networks made systems harder to design, validate, and scale
  • Leak risks from multiple connection points and inconsistent interfaces
  • Multiple vendors creating supply chain variability and integration challenges

After: A Streamlined Approach

IDEX Health & Science valve assemblies, tubing, fittings, degassers, and sensor


  • Simplified fluidic paths that reduce connection points and improve efficiency
  • Integrated assemblies designed to spec, minimizing manual assembly and error
  • Improved reliability and scalability with fewer leaks and a single trusted partner

The Result

For OEMs, this means faster development, more reliable systems, and a clear path from prototype to production—without the complexity.
