Silicone tubing chemical resistance
Our selection of silicone tubing has a wide range of applications and uses, including things such as transporting cold or hot air, carrying liquids, oils, powders, and chemicals from one point to the next, and for electrical sleeving. Since it is made from high-quality materials, it cannot only withstand high temperatures, but the silicone tubing chemical resistance is amazing as well. It can resist almost any chemical out there, including acetone, brake fluid, clomiphene, gear oil, potassium, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and so on. The only chemicals our silicone tubing cannot withstand are chloroform, hydrofluoric acid, methylene chloride, oleic acid, perchloric, and nitric acid.
Because our silicone tubing chemical resistance is high, almost any industry that needs to transport such liquids from one point to another can utilize the tubing we offer for their applications and processes. Besides it being resistant to these things, it can also resist extremely high or low temperatures, almost all weather conditions (such as snow, rain, and ice), and the silicone tubing chemical resistance allows the tubes to withstand UV rays and the ozone that generally destroys tubing manufactured from other substances and materials. Additionally, it is extremely hygienic and can be sterilized, which is why the medical industry can use it as well.
The tubing featured on our website is transparent, which means that, no matter what substance is passing through it, our clients can easily see and monitor the liquids passing through it. This and the silicone tubing chemical resistance allows them to be utilized in the automotive, aerospace, marine, medical, and agricultural manufacturing plants and fields. It can also be used in both indoor and outdoor settings because of its durability. When compared with some other options on the market, our silicone tubing chemical resistance allows it to be used for a very long time, something that can save a lot of money for our clients.
