Translucent Platinum Cured Silicone Rubber Tubing, with its 60° Shore hardness rating, is a top choice for industries requiring precision, durability, and safety. Known for its exceptional physical and chemical properties, this tubing offers unmatched performance across various applications, from food and beverage to medical and industrial uses.
Key Features of Platinum Cured Silicone Tubing
-
High-Quality Platinum Curing Process
The platinum curing process ensures that the silicone tubing is free from peroxides and other contaminants. This results in a non-toxic, odorless, and taste-free product, making it ideal for sensitive applications such as food processing and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
-
Durable and Flexible
The 60° Shore hardness provides an excellent balance between flexibility and durability. This makes the tubing easy to handle and install while maintaining its structural integrity under pressure or stress.
-
Wide Temperature Range
Platinum cured silicone tubing can withstand extreme temperatures, typically ranging from -60°C to +200°C (-76°F to +392°F). This feature ensures reliable performance in both cryogenic and high-temperature environments.
-
Chemical Resistance
Its resistance to a wide array of chemicals, including acids, bases, and solvents, makes it suitable for laboratory and industrial settings. The tubing does not react with transported materials, preserving their purity.
-
Translucency for Visibility
The translucent nature of the tubing allows for easy monitoring of fluid flow, making it a practical choice for applications that require precision and observation.
Applications of Translucent Platinum Cured Silicone Rubber Tubing
-
Food and Beverage Industry
The tubing is FDA-approved and compliant with food-grade standards, making it safe for transferring liquids, syrups, and other consumables without contamination or flavor alteration.
-
Medical and Pharmaceutical Use
Its non-toxic and biocompatible properties make it suitable for use in medical devices, drug delivery systems, and laboratory equipment.
-
Industrial Applications
From transferring chemicals to handling high-temperature fluids in manufacturing processes, this tubing provides reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
-
Automotive and Aerospace
Its temperature resistance and flexibility make it a valuable component in automotive and aerospace systems, particularly for fluid transfer and insulation.
Advantages Over Conventional Tubing
-
Hygienic and Safe: The platinum curing process eliminates potential toxins, ensuring the tubing is safe for critical applications.
-
Enhanced Longevity: Resistant to aging, UV radiation, and environmental factors, it outlasts conventional materials.
-
Non-Leaching: Ideal for sensitive processes where material leaching could compromise product integrity.
