At Microspec Corporation, research, process development, tooling and extrusion of custom medical tubing stay entirely in-house. As a result, we’re more agile and adaptive to change and have tighter control over the finished product.

In Peterborough, New Hampshire, our 24,000 square foot facility includes a fully equipped machine shop for developing custom tools.

Microspec customers are among the foremost suppliers of medical devices in the world. The custom medical tubing that Microspec extrudes for them is among the smallest and most complex in the industry, with some of the tightest tolerances. We specialize exclusively in advanced medical tubing.
