pressure applications where strength, durability and continuous length are critical.
Designed to meet the specific requirements of the pharmaceutical customer, this
hose offers a high pressure rating and complete lot traceability, and unsurpassed
performance characteristics.
Biocompatibility
Sani-Tech® STHT®-R-HD is manufactured from Sani-Tech® 65 brand silicone resin,
a highly biocompatible silicone hose which meets USP Class VI, FDA CFR 177.2600,
USDA, ISO 10993 and European Pharmacopoeia 3.1.9 standards. For additional
compliance data please refer to the characterization information on the back page.
Characteristics
Sani-Tech® STHT®-R-HD is a non-metallic reinforced platinum-cured silicone hose that
can be repeatedly autoclaved, radiated, or sterilized by ethylene oxide gas. This product
remains flexible and performs as specified through a temperature range of -80°F
(-62°C) to 500°F (260°C). Sani-Tech® STHT®-R-HD is available in sizes ranging from 1/2"
ID through 2" ID enabling the specifier or user the flexibility of properly sizing the
application. Sani-Tech® STHT®-R-HD comes in white (standard), red, and blue as stocked
products. Consult the factory for additional colors or customization options. Sani-Tech®
STHT®-R-HD has a Master File with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
