We have several made by AMETEK. They are teflon tubing. The tubes are either 3/8 or 1/2" They are shell and tube exchangers. The big draw back is that the heat transfer is poor. The temperatures are limited. The tubes will also collapse if you put them under full vacuum. We have been slowly replacing all of ours with hastelloy C-276 exchangers.
Hope this helps.
