Silcon® Med-X Medical Grade Platinum-Cured Tubing
Silcon Med-X platinum-cured tubing meets USP Class VI requirements and is supplied in individual, heat-sealed polybag. Its low surface energy helps to resist adhesion and does not support bacteria growth. The tubing is highly elastic without the need for plasticizers which make it a preferred option for life science use. Other sizes and 60A durometer material are also available — call for details. Care is recommended in the selection and application of fittings and clamps as sharp barbed fittings or unlined metal clamps could tear into the wall. Silcon Med-X is supplied in individual, heat-sealed polybags. Should not be used in continuous steam applications.
