Description
Rotilabo® silicone tube is a flexible laboratory hose with an inner diameter of 12 mm and an outer diameter of 16 mm for general liquid-handling and transfer duties. The silicone construction yields a soft, resilient tubing wall suited to peristaltic-style routing, gravity feed and temporary connections between vessels, pumps and process equipment where moderate mechanical flexibility is needed. Wall thickness follows from the 12 mm / 16 mm diameter pair, giving a practical balance of bore and outer bulk for bench and apparatus work. Supplied in a 5 m length as one unit, the tube can be cut to installation size for multiple setups or kept as a continuous run. Empty weight is 0,550 kg for the stated pack. This Rotilabo® hose from manufacturer ROTH SELECTION belongs among hoses for general laboratory applications and supports everyday fluid transfer, media lines and equipment interconnects. Specify it when silicone tubing with 12 mm inner and 16 mm outer diameter in a 5 m piece matches your liquid-handling layout.

Questions about Rotilabo®-silicone tube, inner-Ø 12 mm, outer-Ø 16 mm, 5 m
What is this article?
Rotilabo®-silicone tube, inner-Ø 12 mm, outer-Ø 16 mm, 5 m is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth 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.
