• Tubing is extensively leached, washed, and surface-treated reducing protein levels below the limit of detection as measured by FDA-recognized test methods ASTM D5712 and ASTM D6499
• Seamless tubing- Free of striations lumen for clear passage of liquids and/or gases
• Performance Characteristics:
  • Elasticity – Memory is maintained even after repeated stretching
  • Translucency and uniformity of color – Provides an unobstructed observation of liquid flow line
  • Gripping power – Enables the tubing to grip tenaciously to connectors
• Sterilizable
• Made in USA

The following tests have been performed on Latex Tubing:

1. U.S.P. Biological Reactivity Tests, in VIVO, ClassVI
   - Acute Systemic Toxicity
   - Intracutaneous Toxicity
   - Implantation Test
2. U.S.P. Heavy Metals, Trace Metals

Sterilization Options

1. Autoclave
   - Steam under pressure
   - Check with autoclave equipment manufacturer for recommendations
     • Tubing manufacturer experience is to use 250°F for 20 minutes
     • The product will withstand repeated sterilizations
2. Ethylene Oxide
   - Humidity, gas, and heat sterilization process
   - Parts must be accessible to gas
   - Oxyfume gas: 12% EtO + 88% Freon
3. Gamma
   - Cobalt 60 Gamma radiation penetrates our products easily
   - Do not radiate tubing in an elongated state
   - 1.5 to 2.5 megarads have little to no effect on our rubber recipes on these tubing
