FAQ
Q1: What is the primary difference between your "nature tubing resilient rubber elastic" and standard vinyl tubing?
A1: While vinyl tubing is rigid and plastic, our product is defined by its true rubber elastic properties. It offers far greater flexibility, stretch recovery, and resistance to compression set, making it superior for applications involving movement, vibration, or where a tight seal on barbed fittings is crucial.
Q2: Can this tubing handle fuel or strong solvents?
A2: Our standard synthetic blends offer good resistance to many oils and fluids. However, for specific aggressive chemicals like fuels or strong solvents, we recommend consulting our technical team. We can often propose a specialized compound (e.g., FKM/Viton) within our nature tubing range to meet such demanding requirements.
Q3: Are certifications like REACH, RoHS, or FDA compliance available?
A3: Yes. We understand the compliance needs of global markets. Many of our standard compounds meet RoHS and REACH requirements. For applications involving food or medical contact, we offer specific grades that are formulated and tested to be compliant with relevant FDA and USP Class VI standards upon request.
Q4: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom sizes or colors?
A4: We cater to both large-scale OEMs and smaller distributors. While we have low MOQs for our standard range, custom projects typically have a reasonable minimum run requirement. Please contact our sales team with your specifications for a detailed and competitive quote tailored to your volume needs.
Q5: How do I select the correct durometer (hardness) for my application?
A5: Selection depends on the need for flexibility versus abrasion resistance. Softer tubing (lower Shore A) offers maximum flexibility and sealing grip but may be less abrasion-resistant. Harder tubing provides more structural rigidity and wear resistance. Our technical support team is readily available to guide you through this selection based on your specific operating conditions.
