Latex Tubing
Latex tubing is made from natural liquid latex using a dipping process which
produces a seamless and very smooth and durable tubing. Although latex tubing
is most commonly used as medical or surgical tubing, its properties are found
useful for a number of other applications. Latex tubing holds up against recurring
sterilizations, and its natural amber translucency provides a view of fluid
flow.
Latex tubing's smoothness, both on the interior and exterior, allows
for maximum ease of flow and decreases the chance of crust build-up, and pure
latex tubing has no plasticizers, coagulants or fillers to contaminant the
fluid passing through it. All its other features plus its superior elasticity
and resiliency after being pulsated, stretched or bent over and over again
combine to make latex tubing not only great for the health care industry, but
for the food, toy, instrumentation and sporting goods areas as well. Latex
tubing also exhibits amazing holding-on strength to connectors.
