A gaseous resistant tube comprising an inner core of a heat resistant polymeric material, typically cross-linked polyethylene, protected outer layer of impact resistant material and an intermediate layer of non-metalliferous gaseous resistant material, wherein the intermediate layer is bonded to at least one of the inner core and the outer layer by bonding material compatible with each of the materials to be bonded and is sufficiently elastic that it will not delaminate or rupture either itself or the adjoining layer under heat cycling conditions. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the bonding material is preferably a material different from the layer to which it bonds.

In a heating system using gaseous resistant tubing and subject to temperature variations from about 5°C. to 95°C., the improvement which comprises: (i) a liquid resistant inner tubular core of a heat resistant, cross-linked polyethylene material; (ii) a protective outer tubular layer of an impact resistant polymeric material of a graft copolymer of polyethylene with a saline; and (iii) an intermediate tubular layer of a single, non-metalliferous gaseous resistant material comprising a layer of polyvinyl alcohol, ethylvinyl alcohol or polyacrylonitrile having on each side a priming layer of polyurethane and a layer of polyethylene, wherein said polyethylene layers of the intermediate layer adhere to the inner tubular core and to the outer tubular layer respectively to form an integral laminate, and said polyethylene material, impact resistant polymeric material and gaseous resistant material have substantially similar coefficients of linear expansion and the intermediate layer is sufficiently elastic, such that when the gaseous resistant tube is cycled from about 5°C. and 95°C. there is substantially no delamination to rupture of the intermediate layer.
