FAQ
What is the primary difference between tan gum rubber tubing and standard black rubber hose?
The tan color typically signifies a compound with a higher natural rubber (NR) content, which offers superior flexibility, elasticity, and abrasion resistance compared to many standard black SBR hoses. It's often considered a more premium, durable general-purpose option.
Can this tubing be used for fuel or oil transfer?
No. Standard tan gum rubber tubing is not recommended for petroleum-based fuels, oils, or strong aromatic hydrocarbons, as they can degrade the rubber. For such applications, specifically formulated oil-resistant or fuel-resistant hoses are required.
What are the available connection types?
The tubing is supplied as a bare hose that can be fitted with a wide variety of standard industrial connectors, including barbed fittings, push-to-connect fittings, clamps, and JIC or NPT threaded ends, depending on your system requirements.
Do you offer samples for testing?
Yes, we provide sample lengths to qualified B2B clients for evaluation and testing against your specific application parameters. Please contact our sales team to request a sample.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Our standard MOQ is one roll (typically 50ft or 100ft), but we are flexible and can accommodate smaller trial orders for new business partnerships. For large OEM projects, we offer volume-based pricing.
