Silicone Tubing

Standard and platinum-cured silicone tubing.

PRODUCT TYPES / APPLICATIONS / TECHNICAL DIMENSIONS

Silicone tubing for your application

Select inside diameter, wall thickness and material together.

Silicone tubing can provide flexible fluid connections, link machine components or act as a roller sleeve. The right product depends on its function as well as its diameter.

Standard silicone tubing offers a choice of colors, hardness and cross-sections. Platinum-cured medical tubing forms a separate group, with a transparent appearance and its own size list.

This catalog covers product types, three applications, dimensioned cross-sections and minimum production quantities. The complete current size range is listed online.

How to read a tubing size

Inside diameter × outside diameter. These define the wall thickness.

Inside diameter d is the bore of the tubing, the starting point for connection and flow-area selection.

Outside diameter D is the distance across the outer surfaces. It defines the space required and overall cross-section.

Wall thickness t is the silicone wall on one side: t = (D - d) / 2.

For fluid transfer

Assess connection diameter, required flow rate, pressure or vacuum, and bend layout together.

For roller sleeves

Specify roller diameter, fitted length, wall thickness and operating conditions. Fit is determined by the application.

Cross-sections are proportional technical illustrations; printed and on-screen views are not at actual physical size.

See all 196 sizes in the online medical tubing list. Black cross-sections are technical illustrations; the product image shows clear tubing.

Filling and fluid transfer lines

Flexible connections from tank to filling point.

Where is tubing used?

It provides a flexible fluid connection between tanks, manifolds and filling equipment. Tubing can be routed between fixed pipe connections to suit the layout.

Benefits in the application

A flexible line adapts to the connection layout. Clear options help visually monitor flow. Inside diameter and wall thickness are selected alongside flow and mechanical conditions.

FILLING / TRANSFER - Assess connection size, fluid and cleaning procedures together.

Selecting tubing for filling lines

Assess the whole line, from connections to cleaning.

01 / Connections and flow

Specify inlet and outlet diameters, required flow rate and line length. A narrow connection may restrict the selected tubing's flow area.

02 / Line conditions

Specify operating temperature, line pressure or vacuum requirements. Assess wall thickness and material against these conditions.

03 / Routing

Describe a layout that avoids sharp bends and crushing. Check tubing length, bending space and nearby equipment together.

04 / Cleaning

Specify cleaning fluid, method, temperature and contact time. Product-contact material and required documentation depend on the application.

• Transferred fluid and contact time
• Connection type, bore and line length
• Pressure / vacuum and temperature
• Cleaning method and documents

Transparency helps monitor flow; application conditions determine material selection.

Laboratory and process connections

Flexible fluid transfer with clear platinum-cured tubing.

Where is tubing used?

For fluid transfer between laboratory vessels, process connections and suitable pump systems. Inside diameter and connection geometry depend on the setup's requirements.

Benefits in the application

The clear body helps monitor flow and connections. Flexible silicone tubing allows the connection route to follow the equipment layout.

PLATINUM-CURED SILICONE - Assess fluid, connections and cleaning conditions together.

Selecting platinum-cured tubing

Specify dimensions, operating conditions and documentation together.

Flow area and connection

Select the inside diameter for connection and flow needs. Outside diameter, wall thickness and fitting dimensions must be compatible.

Pump applications

A peristaltic pump repeatedly compresses the tubing. Specify pump model, tubing size, operating duration and fluid to assess a suitable material and cross-section.

Cleaning conditions

Specify the cleaning or sterilization method, temperature and cycle in your inquiry. Suitability of the selected material is assessed separately.

Documents and traceability

Share required tests, compliance documents and traceability requirements before quotation. These form part of product and material selection.

• ID × OD and line length
• Pump model and operating duration
• Fluid, temperature and cleaning
• Required tests and product documents

Platinum curing alone does not establish sterility or any specific compliance certification.

Shrink-wrap machine rollers

Silicone sleeves for roller surfaces. Sized to fit.

Where is tubing used?

Silicone tubing can serve as a sleeve on shrink tunnel rollers. It forms a silicone contact surface on the roller; it does not convey fluid in this application.

Benefits in the application

Tubing is selected by roller diameter and required wall thickness for sleeve use. Assess fitted length, surface temperature, rotation and the product in contact together.

ROLLER SLEEVES - Roller diameter, sleeve length and operating conditions are key quotation details.

Roller sleeve sizing and fitting

Define the roller and silicone sleeve geometry together.

Roller diameter and fitted length

Share roller diameter, total sleeve length and the mounting surface. An existing sleeve sample or technical drawing helps with selection.

Wall thickness and layout

Assess wall thickness, outside diameter and clearance to nearby equipment together. Fit and tolerances depend on the application's requirements.

Operating conditions

Specify surface temperature, rotational speed, product contact and mechanical load. These guide hardness and material selection.

Replacement requirements

Send a cross-section photo, dimensions and operating conditions of the existing tubing. Let's assess the sleeve's fitting and operation together.

The diagram shows a silicone sleeve fitted over a roller. Final dimensions and fitting requirements depend on the application.

Select material properties together

Hardness, temperature and operating conditions matter alongside diameter.

Hardness and flexibility

Select Shore A hardness for bending, compression, fitting and contact needs. Pumps and roller sleeves create different mechanical conditions.

Temperature

Specify continuous and short-term operating temperatures separately. Include the temperature during cleaning cycles in material assessment.

Pressure and vacuum

Assess line pressure or vacuum, connections and tubing cross-section together. Wall thickness alone is not a performance rating.

Chemical contact

Specify the substance, concentration, temperature and contact time. Include cleaning fluids in the same assessment.

Color and transparency

Specify flow monitoring, product identification and appearance needs. Clear or colored appearance does not establish the material's technical grade.

Cleaning and documentation

Describe the cleaning or sterilization method and required documents. Requested properties are confirmed for the material offered.

Numerical operating limits are determined by the selected silicone material's technical data sheet.

Minimum production by size

Separate production rules for standard and medical tubing.

For standard tubing, minimum production depends on outside diameter. Medical tubing with a 1 mm bore has a special rule; other sizes are based on wall thickness.

Medical tubing with a 1 mm inner diameter has a minimum quantity of 1000 metres, regardless of wall thickness. For half-millimetre wall thicknesses, the quantity for the next whole-millimetre thickness applies.

Let's define your tubing requirements together.
