Food grade tubing silicone is type of tubing that is most suitable for contact with food and to be exposed to high temperatures. Food grade tubing silicone has such characteristics because they are the characteristics of silicone, a polymer that has a very wide application and is therefore used in all industries, as well as for private use. No other type of rubber tolerates a bigger temperature range than silicone, making it ideal for numerous purposes. It does not melt even at plus 250 degrees Celsius, and you can also expose a tubing made of silicone to very low temperatures, according to some information, even down to minus 80 degrees Celsius.
When it is stated that silicone is a food grade, it means that it is a type of silicone that is not toxic, because it does not contain any chemical fillers or byproducts, so it is completely safe for contact with food. Our food grade tubing silicone can therefore be used in the food industry or for private use if it is necessary for the tubing to come into contact with food. Of course, this type of tubing is also suitable for many other purposes that do not include food and drinks. For example, it is suitable for the chemical industry, laboratories, draining and so on.
We want to draw your attention to one more thing, and that is size. First of all, you need to pay attention to the inner diameter. The inside diameter has the biggest impact on flow, so make sure it’s not too big or too small. Wall thickness is also important, especially if tubing comes in contact with chemicals. And the length is chosen according to need. We will meet your every request to change the size compared to the sizes we currently offer.
