Selection & Fitting Notes
- Thin walls kink. If the run has bends, specify the tightest bend radius the routing has to make.
- Decide between platinum-cured and peroxide-cured by what touches the bore: platinum for purity-critical use, peroxide for general high-temperature work.
- Tolerance the dimension that matters - inside diameter for flow and peristaltic use, outside diameter when the tube is sleeving or passing through a gland.
- Cut square and deburr. A ragged end is the usual reason a barbed fitting weeps.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the lead time for Blue Hollow Silicone Tube?
Stock profiles of this type are held in inventory and can ship immediately. Custom extrusions of Blue Hollow Silicone Tube take 2-4 weeks, including tooling and production. Expedited service is available if you need the parts sooner.
Can I get samples of Blue Hollow Silicone Tube before placing a full order?
Yes. We can send prototype samples or run a small trial batch of Blue Hollow Silicone Tube so you can test fit, compression set and performance before committing to a production order. Sample policy and freight terms are confirmed together with your quotation.
Do you make the tooling for Blue Hollow Silicone Tube in-house?
Yes. We build our own extrusion dies and tooling in-house, which shortens lead times for custom blue hollow silicone tube and keeps dimensional accuracy and batch-to-batch repeatability under tighter control.
How do I choose the wall thickness for Blue Hollow Silicone Tube?
Thin walls kink and thick walls resist bending but add weight and cost. If the run has bends, tell us the tightest radius it has to make and what the tube carries - that pair of facts usually settles the wall thickness quickly.
Platinum-cured or peroxide-cured Blue Hollow Silicone Tube - which do I need?
It depends on what touches the bore. Platinum-cured is the usual choice where purity matters, such as food, beverage or medical contact. Peroxide-cured handles general high-temperature work well. Tell us the media and the operating temperature and we will specify accordingly.
Which dimension should I tolerance on Blue Hollow Silicone Tube?
Inside diameter matters when the tube carries flow or runs through a peristaltic pump; outside diameter matters when it is sleeving something or passing through a gland. Tolerance the one that actually contacts your fitting - tolerancing both drives cost up for no benefit.
