SILIKON branded silicone tube has an outstanding flexibility and resistance to temperature extremes. Meets FDA and BfR Requirements. Not only that, SILIKON has good electrical properties and ability to self- extinguish, make SILIKON an excellent choice for appliances and computers. SILIKON is Peroxide-cured which contains no Sulphur or other acid-producing chemicals; therefore, eliminating the possibility of staining, corroding, or deteriorating materials it contacts. Extremely resistant to ozone and U.V. over long time periods. Care is recommended in the selection of fittings and clamps for SILIKON as sharp barbed fittings or unlined metal clamps could tear into the tubing wall and possibly cause a failure. SILIKON may be low pressure steam sterilized in-line or autoclaved at up to 250¡F in a normal autoclaving cycle. However, if exposed to repeated steam sterilization or long- term high temperature or pressure, silicone will eventually relax and become gummy. It should then be replaced. SILIKON is not recommended for implantable or in- body uses or for continuous steam applications.
