Socorex silicone tube

Silicone hose designed for light technical and medical applications, made of high quality elastomeric material that combines flexibility, dimensional stability and resistance to aging. The product is designed for use in liquid transfer systems, laboratory devices, components of non-implantable medical devices, fluid paths in industrial processes and in all applications where constant performance over time, resistance to a wide temperature range and good chemical compatibility with low aggressive fluids are required. The tubing is easy to cut, shape and install, allows for secure joints using clamps or compression fittings, and offers a smooth internal surface that reduces the risk of scaling and deposits. Designed for those who need a reliable, flexible and durable component, the silicone hose is suitable for repeated use and frequent maintenance, while ensuring excellent transparency for visual inspection of the transported fluid.

Main characteristics: low temperature flexibility, resistance to thermal variations, low chemical reactivity, smooth internal surface, good elasticity, long service life with adequate maintenance. The material is neutral to the touch and does not release appreciable odors when used correctly; it is resistant to oxidative aging and moderate mechanical stress, while maintaining the elastomeric properties fundamental for correct use in many sectors. Designed to be compatible with ordinary cleaning and sanitization procedures, the hose can be sanitized with non-aggressive methods to preserve its technical characteristics.

Versatility of use: it is suitable for use in laboratory fluid systems, dosing systems, non-aggressive food liquid transfer lines, domestic or professional equipment and in many technical applications where a flexible and reliable tubular solution is required. Thanks to its composition, it maintains constant performance even in conditions of thermal fluctuation and offers ease of installation and maintenance. It is supplied in formats that can be easily adapted to the user's needs, with the possibility of cutting and customizing on site.

Therapeutic Indications

The silicone hose is suitable for conveying non-aggressive fluids in a wide range of technical, scientific and professional applications. In the laboratory field, it is suitable for the connection between peristaltic pumps and measurement equipment, for the transfer of aqueous solutions and low-reactivity mixtures, and for the setup of experimental circuits in which good visibility of the fluid is required. In the light industrial sector, it is suitable for the transport of light oils, slightly aggressive solvents (subject to compatibility verification), and for low pressure ventilation or drainage ducts. In the food sector and in equipment for the preparation of drinks or non-aggressive food products, the tube can be used as an internal duct as long as compliance with hygiene regulations and the cleaning requirements of the production process is verified. The tube is also suitable for testing and prototyping systems, where ease of installation and the possibility of quick replacement are important requirements. In all applications, correct use involves choosing the diameter and thickness suited to the pressure regime, the operating temperature and the nature of the fluid transported; for the conveyance of liquids containing abrasive solid particles, or highly aggressive chemical agents, it is recommended to evaluate alternative materials or specific surface treatments. It is particularly suitable when a smooth internal surface is required to minimize deposits and facilitate washing and sanitization operations, thus helping to maintain high standards of hygiene and performance of the fluid circuit.

Composition

The hose is made of technical grade silicone, an elastomeric matrix made up of siloxane polymers which give the product the characteristics of flexibility, thermal stability and resistance to aging typical of the material. The basic formulation is free of migratory plasticizers and does not contain additives that could cause
