Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q
What certifications does your medical-grade silicone tube comply with?
Our silicone tubes for medical use are manufactured from Platinum-Cured LSR (Liquid Silicone Rubber) that complies with USP Class VI, ISO 10993, and FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 standards. Our quality management system is certified to ISO 13485:2016, ensuring full traceability throughout the manufacturing process.
Q
Can the silicone tube dimensions and hardness be customized?
Yes. We offer full customization of dimensions (inner diameter, outer diameter, wall thickness, and length) as well as Shore A hardness ranging from 10 A to 80 A. This allows the tube to be tailored for specific functions such as soft seals, drainage, or structural applications.
Q
Is the silicone tube suitable for sterilization processes?
Absolutely. The tube withstands temperatures from -50°C to +200°C, making it compatible with steam autoclaving (steam sterilization), EtO sterilization, gamma radiation, and cryogenic storage. Its low compression set (≤ 20% at 175°C for 22 hrs) ensures it maintains seal integrity through repeated sterilization cycles.
Q
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) and lead time?
The MOQ for silicone tubes for medical use is 1,000 pieces. For prototype or sample orders, the lead time is typically 2–4 weeks depending on project complexity. For mass production orders, lead times will be confirmed after reviewing your specific requirements.
Q
Do you offer OEM and ODM services for medical silicone tubes?
Yes, we provide comprehensive OEM and ODM services covering the entire product lifecycle — from initial design consultation and prototyping to validation testing, custom packaging, and logistics. Our team supports clients from concept development through to final delivery.
Q
What colors and surface finishes are available for the medical silicone tube?
The tubes are available in natural (translucent/clear), standard Pantone colors, or fully custom colors using non-migrating pigment masterbatches that comply with medical standards. Surface finishes include medical smooth, textured, or custom options designed to minimize bacterial adhesion and meet specific grip or aesthetic requirements.
