Ace Sanitary provides platinum cured silicone tubing in bulk, custom lengths, and sizes with no minimum order quantity. Our tubing meets the critical demands of the medical, pharmaceutical, research, biotech, and diagnostic industries. Providing clean-room class IV tubing direct from our facility provides our customers with the quality and low lead times they expect. This type of silicone tubing is often used in various industries, including medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, food and beverage, and industrial applications, where high levels of purity, cleanliness, and stability are required.
Here are some key features and advantages of platinum cured silicone tubing:
Biocompatibility: Platinum cured silicone tubing is known for its excellent biocompatibility, making it suitable for medical and pharmaceutical applications, including medical device manufacturing and drug delivery systems.
Purity: The platinum curing process imparts a higher degree of purity to the silicone material compared to other curing methods, reducing the risk of leaching or contamination of the substances being transported through the tubing.
Low Extractables: Platinum cured silicone tubing typically has lower levels of extractable compounds, which means that fewer unwanted substances are likely to be released from the tubing and into the substances being transported.
High Temperature Resistance: Silicone is inherently heat-resistant, and platinum cured silicone tubing can withstand a wide temperature range, making it suitable for applications that involve temperature fluctuations or high-temperature processes.
Flexibility: Silicone tubing is known for its flexibility, which makes it easy to handle and manipulate, even in complex or tight spaces.
Chemical Resistance: Platinum cured silicone tubing exhibits good resistance to many chemicals, acids, and bases, ensuring that the tubing material remains stable and unaffected when exposed to a variety of substances.
Transparency and Clarity: Silicone tubing can be manufactured to be highly transparent, allowing for easy visual inspection of the fluids flowing through the tubing.
Odorless and Tasteless: Platinum cured silicone tubing is generally odorless and tasteless, which is important for applications in the food and beverage industry, as well as medical applications where the tubing's material should not affect the qualities of the substances it comes into contact with.
Smooth Inner Surface: The inner surface of platinum cured silicone tubing tends to be smooth, minimizing the risk of residue buildup or the adherence of particles or microorganisms.
Customization: Platinum cured silicone tubing can be manufactured in various sizes, thicknesses, and lengths to suit specific application requirements.
Platinum cured silicone tubing is often preferred in situations where product purity, biocompatibility, and chemical resistance are critical. Consult with our expert team to determine the best tubing material for your specific needs.
