A flexible, fluid flow tubing is configured to be kink resistant, and a medical device is configured with such kink resistant tubing. The tubing has a length L and a circular cross-section shape taken perpendicular to the length dimension. The tubing has an inside radius r and an outside radius R, wherein L/R≥34.8, and wherein R/r≥1.5. The tubing may be made of a polyether block amide (PEBA) or other thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). The tubing may be received in a channel of a hollow needle, wherein the needle is slideable in the axial dimension relative to the tubing, to selectively slide off of at least a portion of the tubing.
