Add length suffix to part number when ordering. Example: 100 ft. of 1/16” I.D. x 1/8” O.D.
tubing is part number 280 0084-100.
*Performed on hydrostatic test equipment at ambient temperature;
based on the ASTM D1599 method.
BOLD
indicates the critical dimension for fittings application.
Notes
The most outstanding properties of SILCON
are its flexibility and resistance to temperature
extremes. These, plus its good electrical
properties and ability to self-extinguish, make
SILCON an excellent choice for appliances and
computers.
Peroxide-cured SILCON contains no sulphur or
other acid-producing chemicals, thereby
eliminating the possibility of staining, corroding,
or deteriorating materials it contacts. It is
extremely resistant to ozone and U.V. over long
time periods.
Care is recommended in the selection of
fittings and clamps for SILCON as sharp barbed
fittings or unlined metal clamps could tear into
the tubing wall and possibly cause a failure.
SILCON is not recommended for implantable
or in-body uses or for continuous steam
applications.
SILCON 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.
Colors for industrial applications are available
through minimum order — call for details.
