Description
Laboratory tubing, silicone, transparent, 12 mm Ø is a flexible silicone hose designed for laboratory fluid transfer and connection duties. Transparency of the wall enables continuous visual inspection of liquid movement and potential air bubbles during experiments. Offered in a pack size of 1 m, the tubing can be readily cut and adapted to specific apparatus layouts on the laboratory bench. Produced from silicone material, it forms part of the silicone tubing category within laboratory hose assortments. This item from manufacturer Hecht delivers a clear, workable conduit for everyday research, educational and analytical applications where silicone elastomers are specified. The 12 mm diameter accommodates slightly larger flow rates or connector sizes commonly encountered in standard laboratory glassware and plastic fittings. Straightforward handling allows quick installation and replacement without specialised tools. Suitable for many aqueous and compatible laboratory media, the tubing supports reliable temporary or semi-permanent lines while preserving full visibility of the internal contents throughout use.
This article is part of Silicone tubing, in Tubing, hoses & fittings.

Questions about Laboratory tubing Silicone, transparent 12 mm Ø
What is this article?
Laboratory tubing Silicone, transparent 12 mm Ø is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hecht for laboratory use. It sits in Silicone tubing, inside Tubing, hoses & fittings, in Labware.
Silicone tubing stays flexible across a wide temperature range and survives repeated autoclaving, which is why peristaltic pumps and media lines use it. It is not the choice for strong solvents, which migrate into the wall.
Tubing is how a liquid or a gas moves between two vessels without being poured. Silicone stays flexible and survives repeated autoclaving. PTFE resists almost every solvent and is stiff. PVC is the ordinary flexible line for water and for mild aqueous work. The fitting, not the tube, is what usually leaks: the barb, the thread and the stopcock have to match the tube bore. Glass and plastic apparatus around these lines is indexed under ISO laboratory ware.
