Open mesh polyester braiding incorporated within the walls of
silicone tubing
Made from FDA-sanctioned ingredients
Translucent natural color for visual contact with the flow
Able to resist extreme temperature variation: -80°F to 350°F
Odorless, tasteless, and inert
Excellent weatherability properties — resists U.V., ozone, gases,
moisture, and extreme temperatures
Offers far higher pressure capabilities than similarly-sized
unreinforced silicone tubing
Listed by the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF 51)
Notes
The construction of SILBRADE enables silicone
tubing to handle increased pressure applications.
SILBRADE offers outstanding resistance to
temperature extremes and is made from FDA-
sanctioned ingredients.
The flexible design and construction of
SILBRADE also allows excellent bend radii and
permits installation in restricted spaces without
impeding flow.
SILBRADE, a peroxide-cured product, contains
no sulphur or other acid-producing chemicals
thereby eliminating the possibility of staining,
corroding, or deteriorating other materials it
contacts. It is also resistant to ozone and U.V. over
long time periods.
Care is recommended in the selection of
fittings and clamps, as sharp barbed fittings or
unlined metal clamps could tear into the hose
wall and possibly cause a failure, especially at
elevated pressures.
SILBRADE is not recommended for
implantable or in-body uses or for continuous
steam applications.
SILBRADE may be low pressure steam
sterilized in-line or autoclaved at up to 250°F in a
normal autoclaving cycle. However, if exposed to
repeated steam sterilization or long-term high
temperature or pressure, silicone will eventually
relax and become gummy. It should then be
replaced.
