Description
Construction consists of a liner of silicone elastomer, an open polyester braid reinforcing layer and a cover layer of silicone elastomer. Care is recommended in the selection and application of fittings and clamps, as sharp barbed fittings or unlined clamps could tear into the hose wall and possibly cause a failure, especially at elevated pressures. Silbrade® Medical is not recommended for implantable or in-body uses. If exposed to repeated steam sterilization or long-term high temperature or pressure, silicone will eventually relax and become gummy. It should then be replaced. Translucent natural color for visual contact with the flow. Manufactured under good manufacturing procedures in a controlled environment.
