SILR - a continuously extruded translucent reinforced silicone rubber tubing. Standard reinforcement of glass fibre braiding sandwiched between vulcanised layers of silicone rubber. A working temperature of 220°C is therefore attainable with hot air sterilization to 250°C. Vapour sterilization to 3.8 bar. Every coil is tested to recommended working pressure (Din 20024). Stock bore size range 3.0mm to 25.4mm. Silicone rubber liner material to FDA 177.2600, USP xx/xx1, BGA xV and EP VI.1.3.2 (silicone elastomer for closures and tubing).

Manufactured using minimum quantities of 2,4 dichlorobenzoyl peroxide catalyst specifically for laboratory and medical use. Every effort is made to maintain low DCBA levels following post cure. (Peroxide free, platinum catalyst reinforced tubing can be extruded to minimum order.)

A 200% factor of safety is applied to recommended reinforced tubing working pressures. Working pressures stated are at 20°C, tempertures over 100°C will result in a decrease in working pressure, consult us for further information. Higher working pressure and variation in specification to minimum order.

Variation in tolerance requirement may be agreed prior to manufacture.
