What are the main functions, properties and applications of industrial silicone tubing?According to raw materials, service environments and application requirements, industrial silicone tubing can be classified into industrial-grade silicone hose, food-grade silicone hose and sanitary-grade silicone tubing. Different types of silicone tubing have strict quality grading and requirements.Due to the special chemical properties, temperature resistance of silicone rubber, it is widely used in industry, food, pharmaceutical and other industries for conveying acidic and alkaline organic solvents, as well as solids such as dust and particles.
Industrial silicone tubing mainly utilizes the exceptional high-temperature resistance, chemical inertness and aging resistance of silicone.It can operate continuously at temperatures above 200℃ for a long time, and is resistant to UV radiation and aging.It is generally used for conveying industrial materials and chemical substances.The hose is made of general silicone rubber and produced by extrusion molding.
Food-grade silicone tubing is manufactured from food-grade compliant silicone materials, cured with peroxides to ensure no material shedding.It is the ideal matching hose for food filling, especially for wine, beverages and edible oil filling.Food-grade silicone hose features excellent high-temperature resistance, tear resistance and flexibility, and can withstand long-term dynamic bending, making it also an ideal accessory hose for peristaltic pumps.
