| Notes
SILCON MED-X tubing is
made under strict accordance with Good Manufacturing Procedures and conforms to the biocompatibility
requirements of USP Class VI.
SILCON MED-Xs
surface properties resist sticking and encrustation, and
it will not support bacteria growth. The tubing is soft,
pliable, and contains no plasticizers which could leach
out, causing flow contamination or tube hardening. Other
sizes and 50A durometer material are also available. Call for details.
Note: SILCON MED-X is not recommended for implantable or in-body uses or for continuous steam applications.
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.
^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.
SILCON MED-X is supplied in individual, heat-sealed polybags and should be sterilized prior to use.
