Translucent silicone tubing
Translucent silicone tubing it is not exactly the same as transparent silicone tubing. Unlike transparent silicone tubing, translucent silicone tubing is semitransparent, which means that it allows light to pass through which will allow you to see what is inside to some extent, but will not be able to clearly see all shapes in detail. Translucent silicone tubing is a popular choice for those who don’t need the tubing to be completely transparent, but they also don’t want tubing that has certain color which doesn’t allow them to see anything inside.
Once you decide if you want translucent or transparent tubing, it is time to choose a size. As you can see, we offer so many different sizes. Whatever length you need, diameter or wall thickness, you can find it in our offer. Even if you can’t find the right size among the sizes offered on our website, there is a possibility to order whatever size you want. You can choose thin or thick wall, very small diameter or large. The length also depends on you.
Also, you can choose whether you want the silicone tubing to be reinforced or you want highly flexible tubing. It all depends on you. Silicone is an ideal material for you if you are going to expose the tubing to extremely high temperatures, as the silicone can withstand from minus 80 degrees C to plus 300 degrees C. If the tubing will come into contact with food, then choose food grade silicone. The chemical stability of silicone is great, so if you plan to use translucent silicone tubing in the lab, know that you can do it. Service life of silicone tubing is very long, but silicone does not have as good tear resistance as, for example, natural rubber, so be careful not to damage it.
