Different Uses And Types Of Rubber Tubing Profiles

By Dominique Martin


Given the growing needs for rubber tubing today, manufacturers have unsurprisingly found themselves competing closely against each other. Prices have dropped down as noticeable excess of supply substantially overwhelms the market along with the increase of the number of its applications. Medical, commercial and industrial undertakings have critical need for such material and that is why fabricators are never threatened to produce as many products as they can or to any possible decline in business even if their selling price reaches to a depressing level. Perhaps, the volume of orders they receive from their regular customers each day can justifiably give way to a healthy income.

Nonetheless, as consumers, it might be hard to decide on which products or suppliers to entrust a large quantity of order with unless they do not mind getting unreliable configurations and built. There are several styles and characteristics of rubber tubing profiles that users ought to know. Standard profiles consist of over a dozen configurations and among these are the U channels and P strips.

Several manufacturers offer excellent products at low rates. Shipment is taken care of professionally so users do not need to wait long to get their tubing requirements for their construction, hydraulic, pneumatic or medical projects. They just have to be sure they are negotiating with the right people. Otherwise, be bound to experience unpleasant things about the purchase.

Big or small quantity orders are quoted fairly to tip off customers about how much they are likely to pay. Rubber types made from special quality materials are expected to yield better results but obtained at greater cost. Anyhow, here is a glimpse of the different qualities of different properties and constructions necessary for specific applications.

Natural Rubbers. Primarily based on natural compounds such as latex and polyisoperene, these materials are tear resistant and highly elastic. Also, these can capably set forth cold temperatures and can be highly resistant to stretching, abrasion and sagging. These are ideal for vacuum application but can be poor oil and ozone resistance and likely available at higher cost.

Synthetic Rubbers. Unnatural rubbers are from petrochemical feedstock. They are good abrasion, chemical and fluid resistant. These are available in many synthetic materials and these include flouroelastomer, ethylene propylene, polychloroprene and isobutylene isoprene butyl. Each has distinct properties and advantages. One thing is sure, though, all are excellent chemical and weather resistant.

Latex Tubing. This profile is primarily used in many medical applications due to its ability to hold up to recurring sterilizations. It comes in naturally with amber translucency which gives way to visible liquid flow. Also, it is extremely smooth and elastic making it ideal to many other applications.

Reinforced Tubes. Designed to provide impressive strength for vacuum application or anything that demands greater potency level, reinforced tubes are created through integrating fibres and banding. Their interior diameters measure about 1 1/2 or more. As for vacuum applications, extra metal reinforcing wire will be required to fortify construction.

Silicone Tubing. This provides great serviceability, flexibility and purity. This is fairly resistant to temperature fluctuations as well as chemicals and abrasions which is why this deems ideal to sanitary applications.
