Pharmaflex™ medical and pharmaceutical grade silicone hoses are ideally suited for suction and delivery applications within the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and life sciences industries such as feeding pumps, drug dispensing equipment, diagnostic equipment and processing equipment.
The construction of these hoses allows them to work efficiently and effectively on applications at working pressures and temperatures other hoses would not be able to operate within, with resistance to temperatures from -60°C to +200°C and pressures up to 16 bar. These pharmaceutical hoses can be reinforced with steel coils or polyester braids in multiple layers to provide flexibility, versatility and value.
Pharmasil hoses feature smoothbore extruded liners, smooth covers and a high purity (USP VI) platinum cure. This makes them ideally suited for a variety of low pressure applications as they can resist temperature extremes, radiation, compression sets, weathering, chemical attack, corona and ozone as well as being odourless and tasteless. With internal diameters of 1/4″ to 1″ and a range of colour options and end fittings, these hoses can be manufactured to your exact requirements.
These hoses are produced in one of the most versatile and flexible FED STD 209E Class 10,000 Clean Room manufacturing facility in Europe, using procedures controlled by ISO9001:2008 standards. Clean Room conditions are continually monitored to ensure a Class 7 standard is maintained. The production facility used only produces Platinum Cured Silicone products ensuring there is NIL cross contamination. Pharmaflex Silicone Tubing is packaged individually in double wrapped heat sealed polybags and then placed in a clean, white box ready for despatch.
