Rubber Tubing for Vacuum Applications (Up to 1-1/4″ I.D.)
Rubber tubing with an inner diameter (I.D.) up to 1-1/4″ is capable of self-support in foreline vacuum systems, making it ideal for short applications where external reinforcement isn’t feasible.
Key Properties:
- Minimum Tensile Strength: 3,000 psi
- Durometer Hardness: 45 ± 5
- Temperature Range: Continuous use from -20°F to 180°F
Color and Size Specifications:
- Tubing I.D. of 3/8″ or Smaller: Typically tan in color
- Tubing I.D. of 7/16″ and Larger: Typically supplied in red
Additional Considerations:
- Tubing Larger Than 1-1/4″ I.D.: Tubing with an I.D. greater than 1-1/4″ requires an internal metal spring to prevent collapse under vacuum pressure.
- Limitations on Length: Even with internal support, tubing longer than 1 foot may still collapse. For lengths exceeding 1 foot, PVC tubing with a molded-in spring is a better alternative for maintaining structural integrity in vacuum applications.
